At the edge of the galaxy lay the Fortress known as Stars' End, a mysterious planet bristling with deadly automated weapons systems, programmed to slaughter anyone fool enough to come within range.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
this is the final novel in the starfisher trilogy, and continues following the characters from book 2. a new threat to humanity is introduced, some questions resolved, though i felt the depictions of star's end near the end of the book could have been fleshed out more. all in all a rather dark ending to this series.
Good, solid, self-contained, needs a follow-up novel.

In this book Cook sets up all the solutions, but doesn't execute them or take us to the post holocaust world. The setting cries out for another novel (not to mention, once something is done, even if all who did it died, others will replicate their work, knowing it is possible).Worth reading.
