Araldis is still under occupation by hostile forces, and with the Orion League of Sentient Species seemingly unable – or unwilling – to help, Mira Fedor is forced to turn to the mercenary captain, Rast Randall, if she is to save her planet.

However, while Rast's contacts may be free of political constraints, what they lack in red tape they more than make up for in ruthlessness. From Lasper Farr, the Stain War veteran to the Sole initiates at Belle Monde to Rast herself, everyone is pursuing their own agenda.

But are they really separate goals? Or are events rushing to a single, terrifying conclusion . . . ?

Review quotes:

'I strongly recommend the Sentients of Orion series for any space opera or sense of wonder sf lover, though he/she should start with Chaos Space or even better, Dark Space. Otherwise you will be missing on what is fast becoming one of the most accomplished and best modern sf offering out there. And as a bonus, once you immerse into the setting, the novel is fast and reasonably short, so no fear of having to trundle through a door stopper here.' Fantasy Book Critic

 

'The third and penultimate book in the ingeniously constructed The Sentients of Orion space opera series, Mirror Space is choreographed perfectly to set up the world shattering finale in Transformation Space... Mirror Space is a brilliant continuation of The Sentients of Orion series, lifting it once again to a new level.' Fiction Et al

Scifiguy.ca 'The third book in the Sentients of Orion series, Mirror Space is space opera supreme with so much going for it. The build up in books 1 and 2 has been great and now the pay off can start ready for the conclusion in book four. I'm reading this at the moment and can tell you that it's living up to expectations. For space opera with some strong characters and great plotting this series is one to read.'

 

Walker of the Worlds: 'Mirror Space has once again shown that the Sentients of Orion series is one that deserves your attention and that Marianne is a writer worthy of praise. Highly recommended.' Overall rating 9/10

 

'As you'd expect with Marianne, the writing is full of twists and turns, the characters jump out of the pages and you can see each combative maneuver in your minds eye with amazing HD clarity. Add to the mix vivid landscapes that are almost photographic and the novel written from various Points of View and it's a novel that very much ticks all the right boxes for me as a reader...'Falcata Times.


'Mirror Space is the third book in de Pierres' The Sentients of Orion series, which has been described by numerous reviewers as 'Space Opera supreme... This is quality Space Opera with battles, aliens, romance, technology and humour.' The Straits Times.
