Product Description

Book Description

Sten had fought his way up from slave labour on a factory world to commander of the Eternal Emperor's bodyguard, the Imperial Gurkhas.

But during his first three months on Prime World, the most dangerous weapons Sten had encountered were the well-phrased lies of Court politicians. It seems no place for an honest fighting man. But when a bomb destroys a local bar, Sten discovers the danger and corruption behind Court intrigue.



From the Publisher

Sten had fought his way up from slave labor on a factory world to commander of the Eternal Emperor’s bodyguard, the Imperial Gurkhas. But during his first three months on Prime World, the most dangerous weapons Sten had encountered were the well–phrased lies of Court politicians. It seemed no place for an honest fighting man. But when a bomb destroys a local bar, Sten discovers the danger and corruption behind Court intrigue. Only quick work by Sten, Alex Kilgour, and a tough female detective can keep the Empire together and the Emperor alive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sci-fi skullduggery, Nov 25 2001
By David C. Hill "*** Dave" (Centennial, CO USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After the first two books of the series set the tone for Cole & Bunch's military/spy space opera, this novel sets the broader themes rolling. Sten, now head of the Eternal Emperor's bodyguard, must deal with traitors within the palace and without, trying to find out who's trying to kill the emperor -- and how to avert interstellar war. Cole & Bunch are endlessly entertaining, mixing blood, puns, action, politics and philosophy into a fast-paced mix. The whole series is great fun and entertainment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sten is back again, and better than ever!, Jan 15 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Court of a Thousand Suns: (#3) (Mass Market Paperback)
He's come from a hellish man-made planet/factory to become one of the Eternal Emperor's most trusted men. He's crushed rebellions, and is now part of the Emperor's personal bodyguards. This book is a turning point in the Sten saga, eclipsed only by his actions in Empires End, book 8 in the series. A MUST READ OR DIE! to any Sten fan.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book has become a rarity, Sep 30 2000
By Dany (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Court of a Thousand Suns: (#3) (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to say that I have been looking for this book for more than 1 year and I haven't seen it anywhere. This leads to the fact that I cannot review it. If the publisher is reading this, I would advise him to start reprinting it because it makes no sense for me buy the other books in the series if I cannot read in a chronological manner. After reading the first 2 books of the series, I must say that the Sten series is among the best. Unfortunately I don't know where the business sense of the publisher has gone.
