Machinations and family issues in orbit

Bren Cameron continues to be at the centre of the battle for hegemony between the three powers, this time from the space station. At the same time he battles fraught family issues…

Exiting and enjoyable on all levels. The performance is decent, the general storyline is told well. The issue is when the artist does other voices - some work well, but many become quite painful to listen to.
