When Trouble Dog and Sal Konstanz joined the House of Reclamation, a group of ships who travel space on rescue missions for all beings, they never expected that they would be pivotal in preventing another galaxy wide war.

In Embers of War, Gareth L. Powell manages to mix action and intrigue, in a way that doesn’t overshadow the emotional development of its characters. Their part in the genocide of an entire planet haunts their every moment, and influences all of their decisions. Trouble Dog and Sal Konstanz’s story is one of redemption. They both realize that there is nothing they can do to change the past, but maybe dedicating their lives to saving others is at least something.
