Negative Positive
Title: From the frying pan into the fire...
Review: This is a three-in-one book, publishing Contact And Commune (renamed First Time The Charm), and Converse And Conflict (named Second To One), with the third and, maybe, final book in the series - Third Among Equals.The asteroid, 5023 Eris, has turned out to be a ship - a very, very old space ship full of danger but little in the way of answers for the Elders. Then there is ANOTHER murder. Also it turns out that the ship isn't uncrewed. And, what do you know, the Banker, one of the most powerful men on Earth, may still be alive.Eichra Oren and his friend Sam have their hands (and paws) full. Enemies are coming from every direction - from within their ranks, from within the asteroid and maybe from beyond the stars! Toss in the Galactic Confederacy and you have WHOLE other Universe thrown into the mix.It makes you want to toss in your sword, scream Uncle and get drunk. Great ending, maybe, to the series.I keep saying maybe because you never know with Mr. Smith.
