Now they have to outwit the AI if they want to join the pirate crew--and survive long enough to enjoy it. Adda and Iridian are newly minted engineers, but aren't able to find any work in a solar system ruined by economic collapse after an interplanetary war. Desperate for employment, they hijack a colony ship and plan to join a famed pirate crew living in luxury at Barbary Station, an abandoned shipbreaking station in deep space. But when they arrive there, nothing is as expected. The pirates aren't living in luxury--they're hiding in a makeshift base welded onto the station's exterior hull. The artificial intelligence controlling the station's security system has gone mad, trying to kill all station residents and shooting down any ship that attempts to leave--so there's no way out. Adda and Iridian have one chance to earn a place on the pirate crew: destroy the artificial intelligence. The last engineer who went up against the AI met an untimely end, and the pirates are taking bets on how the newcomers will die. But Adda and Iridian plan to beat the odds. There's a glorious future in piracy

Not a fan
Loved itit is very intense we do meet some new characters who I really liked though I wish we got a little more time with them I was so happy to see more of the characters that we met earlier on in the series especially Aiden Katie and Ezra and whilst this probably wasn't as twisty and turny as the other books it was a really satisfying ending
Review 1 of 2
Loved itthis is the finale to the illuminae series and I've listened to all of those books on audio and since it's also a very visual story the way that I do it is I listen and I follow along in the book as well so it really brings the reading experience to life
Loved itobsidio by Jay Kristoff and Amy Kaufman this is the third and final book in the illuminate files I loved it this might be my favorite out of the series
