Not only was this a great conclusion to this book series, this is one of the best books I've read so far this year. I was just really blown away by the conclusion of this series.
This day all gods die (1996)
From first page Bantam paperback February 1997: Drifting in space, sabotaged by a crewman tainted with an alien mutagen, the starship Trumpet broadcasts to any ship in range the formula of the mutagen's antidote -- a drug the United Mining Company has suppressed for its own sinister purposes. Aboard the crippled ship, the fugitives and survivors -- Morn Hyland, an ex-UMCP cop, Angus Thermopyle, a newly freed cyborg, and unwilling saboteur Ciro Vasaczk -- must make a desperate gamble. Pursued by the UMCP ship Punisher, threatened by the return of an Amnion combat vessel, they will hijack the police craft by any means necessary... and take it back to Earth.

Stephen R. DonaldsonFrom first page Bantam paperback August 1992:
FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE
Beautiful, brilliant, and dangerous, Morn Hyland is an ex-police officer for the United Mining Companies -- and the target of two ruthless, powerful men. One is the charismatic ore-pirate Nick Succorso, who sees Morn as booty wrested from his vicious rival, Angus Thermopyle. Thermopyle once made the mistake of underestimating Morn and now he's about to pay the ultimate price. Both men think they can possess her, but Morn is no one's trophy -- and no one's pawn.
Meanwhile, within the borders of Forbidden Space, wait the Amnion, an alien race capable of horrific atrocities. The Amnion want something unspeakable from humanity -- and they will go to unthinkable lengths to get it.
