Power Play (Petaybee, Book 3)

sci fi but very very human. Keeps you on edfge to the end.

This is the third book in the POWER trilogy. It started out a little slow, but the plot got better. The same theme showed up in the third one--redemption. A pirate sees the error of her ways, and decides to become one of the good guys. I'd recommend this book if you like Anne McCaffrey, but if you're looking for good, in-depth storytelling, this book isn't it.

Keeping track of the secondary characters can be tricky at times. The big "stunning reveal" is leaked way too early in the book. Though it is nice how the characters find out what the reader already knows. I would love to know what happens to Torkel Fisk and Matthew Luzon. Oh well...

Anything Anne or Ann writes is excellent and when they get together it's even better! Anne McCaffrey knows her irish culture & Ann Scarborough knows her Alaskan culture - they merge the two very well throughout this series. Can't wait for the next trilogy!

In this book Anne McCaffrey has once again proven that she is a master. Petabee once a slumbering ice ball,awoken by a terraforming process , performed miraculous healings and made it known that it was sentient is once more in danger when on their way to testify on Gal-3 Yanaba, Bunny, Diego, and Marmion d'Revers are kidnapped by space pirate Onidi Luchard the ransom Petabee.
