My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A great read about adventure. A mysterious voice calls out acrosss the universe, sounding in the heads of a multitude of people from different planets. It brings together a series of characters as events unravel and they are taken on a quest of adventure and danger. What does the voice really want from them all?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. A series of well developed characters like the brave warrior Cassius or Hirisho trying to make his father proud or the wise and kind Nerities. However, at times it felt like there were a lot or characters to keep track of and this could have been reduced to help the readee follow the story.
A great example of world building with a wide range of fantatsical beings and worlds with their own rules and laws and societies wonderfully written. I liked the feel of different worlds having different feels to them like the Egyptian or samurai soldiers, making the universe feel diverse and full of culture and life and people, wonderfully written.
I liked the mystery of the voice and what it wanted, making you want to read on to find out answers.
However at times, it felt like the book was more concerned with characters than describing the details of the planet in question to engage the reader. The switches between worlds were often jarring and hard to follow and could have deserved a chapter each to give this and the description justice. Overall, a great read and I would give it four stars.
