Lawrence Newton always dreamed of adventure amongst the stars. Now the ultimate prize is within his grasp, but what will he risk to get it?
Lawrence is the sergeant of a washed-out platoon, taking part in the bungled invasion of yet another human colony world. The giant corporations call such campaigns 'asset realization', but in practice it's simple piracy.
When he's on the ground, being shot at and firebombed by resistance forces, he recalls stories of the Temple of the Fallen Dragon. Its priests supposedly guard a treasure hoard large enough to buy lifelong happiness. So Lawrence decides to mount a dangerous private-enterprise operation of his own.

Very confusing without pages to flip back and forth but the story itself was as usual fantastic.

Boy did this one start slow. Also up till halfway through the book I was still wondering where this story was going, up until chapter 15. In the end, it was worth the wait. Not one of the best from PFH, but still worth reading, if you can make it past the first 10 hours or so.
