Gods I fucking love this series.
The Audible audiobook is amazing and totally worth it. I literally looked up the narrator, Natasha Soudek's other work it was that good.
This would also make a great showing as a miniseries or movie. The space fight scenes with the eerie silence....I get shivers just imagining it.
No stone is left unturned, no thread left dangling. It's an amazing weave of inter, intra, and extraternal conflicts. It's got EVERYTHING. The fucked up blood family and found family, friends and lovers, betrayal and enemies, double crosses and plot twists, TERFs and fascists, action and inner turmoil.
At times it might feel bogged down with too much detail or slowed down with too much stuff flying around, but it all comes together and is really important for plot and character development.
This isn't a kiddie gloved superhero tale. People DIE. People SUFFER. People LIVE with terrible consequences of their actions, both good and bad.
Sovereign goes beyond bland white and rich dudes, beyond simple take over the world villains, and damsels in distress. *This* is the kind of superhero shit we need these days!
I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE!!!!!
