Thrawn and his allies race to save the Chiss Ascendancy from an unseen enemy in the second book in the epic Star Wars: Thrawn Ascendancy trilogy from best-selling author Timothy Zahn.

Thrawn's latest triumph still rests newly on his shoulders. Despite leading the Chiss to victory and bringing glory to the House of Mitth, the true threat to the Ascendancy has not yet been extinguished. Their foes do not send threats or ultimatums, or mass ships on the edge of the Chaos. Their weapons come cloaked in smiles and generosity: gifts offered freely. Services granted unconditionally.

Across the Ascendancy, seemingly inconsequential events could herald the doom of the Chiss. As Thrawn and the Expansionary Defense Fleet rally to uncover the enemy plot, they discover a chilling truth: rather than invade Chiss capitals or pillage their resources, they strike at the very foundation of the Ascendancy, seeking to widen the rifts between the Nine Ruling Families and the Forty Great Houses below. As rivalry and suspicion sow discord among allies, each warrior must decide what matters most to them: the security of their family, or the survival of the Ascendancy itself.

Marc Thompson is absolutely phenomenal, he's like 5 people in 1, so many voices it's hard to fathom...

The skill of the 3rd person omniscient mastered

The skill of the write run the epic battle clashed to the intimate and well planned out tactical thoughts and discussions this book is an absolutely brilliant second book of the series. Even if you start without listening to any Thrawn book, many morals and skill that can be implemented in real life, can be learnt. Or for the action lovers, or the tactical, and puzzle lovers, this book depicts the rise of the Greatest tactician ever witnessed before. The past history of… Grand Admiral Thrawn.
