Fantasía-og-scifi
Blackhawk: a wanderer, a man running from a dark and sinister past. A genetically-engineered warrior, a capable and accomplished killer, he is also a lost soul, a man who has fled to the deepest reaches of space seeking his true identity.
The Far Stars: the farthest extent of human habitation in the galaxy, a sector of a hundred inhabited worlds, it is a dangerous expanse full of pirates, mercenaries, and cutthroats. The sector is a rough and rugged frontier, lying beyond the darkness of the great Void, and the only place in all the vastness of space where men live free of the brutal empire that rules the rest of mankind.
Celtiboria: once the premier world in the Far Stars, now a planet wracked by centuries of brutal civil war, driven to the edge of a dark age by the unending struggle among its Warlords for power and control.
Augustin Lucerne: one of Celtiboria's feuding Warlords, a brilliant tactician and a respected commander. Lucerne is something rare on Celtiboria, in all of the Far Stars . . . an honorable man who fights not for personal aggrandizement but to save his world.

Allan writes a lot of series and at a prodigious pace. Whether the speed or the sheer volume of what he's written is to blame, I feel this series fails to both live up to his better works, as well as differentiate itself from the character development of his previous protagonists.The overall story is new ground for Allan, but rings familiar to many other sci fi worlds other creators have already made, in the insurgency and 'war for the planet' motifs. The ending divergence was surprising, especially since Allan seems to have set the groundwork for at least 4 successive books with hints of upcoming hurdles, seemingly hinting at a 'mysterious stranger' kind of ongoing story (new and welcome ground), but the protagonist feels like carbon copy sci-fi action protagonist with little to be interested in. While this isn't much of a dealbreaker in a protagonist, if the novel is to lean so heavily on him as to have him be the only fixture, then he needs to be much more interesting.
