ReviewsPraise for the Deathstalker Series "The Deathstalker Saga is space opera to the extreme as only Simon R. Green can do it. Intense, unique, and addictive, it's everything George Lucas wishes his work could be, if he had an unlimited budget and the peculiar creativity I've come to associate with British writers. I love Green's work, and I can't recommend this book enough."--SF Site "Green ably juggles elements of sword and sorcery, high fantasy, humorous quest and SF, with homages to authors such as Moorcock, Adams, Cordwainer Smith, and Zelazny...a fun, twisty romp with surprises around every corner."-- Publishers Weekly "Reading even one Deathstalker leaves one feeling jollier than before, for the series continues to avoid the lapses of tone so common in humorous space opera and fantasy."-- Booklist "Rip-roaring space opera with dastardly villains, exciting battles, nefarious plots, and strong willed heroes."-- Chronicle "Fans of the various Star Wars and Star Trek novels are going to love Green's epic science fiction series. Plenty of action and adventure."--Midwest Book Review "The Deathstalker family legacy and the battle for the throne are reminiscent of high fantasy, and the wisecracking heroes and villains would feel at home in a Hollywood action-adventure blockbuster. Green has created an amazing universe that stretches light years into the far future."-- RT Book Reviews
SynopsisOwen Deathstalker has a prophecy to fulfill. Just as the espers foretold, Owen tumbled an empire and witnessed the end of everything he believed in...all that's left to do is die. But Owen has a few more scores he'd like to settle before his borrowed time is up. The Empire is besieged by nanotechnology plagues and AI invasions, while mysterious and horrific beings, known as "the Recreated," descend from the Darkvoid. But right now, Owen's only concern is rescuing Hazel d'Ark from the vicious Blood Runners who abducted her. He's already lost so much to become the leader and warrior he never wanted to be; he'll be damned if he loses Hazel too. So one more time, Owen Deathstalker will step up and be the hero--for Hazel, and then for Humanity. One more time, he'll call upon the gifts of the Deathstalker Clan to fulfill his destiny and face death. All while knowing that every "one more time" could be his last.
