In a galaxy tied together by the magic of the elite Jump Magi, Damien Montgomery is a newly graduated member of their number. With no family or connections to find a ship, he is forced to service on an interstellar freighter known to be hunted by pirates. When he takes drastic action to save the Blue Jay from their pursuers, he sets in motion a sequence of events beyond his control – and attracts enemies on both sides of the law!

Fantastically original story!
It's so nice when you invest time into a book read and are rewarded with interesting characters and an original story free from boring repetition. Highly recommended!
I think this might be a 4 star plot with 3 star writing. The story is an imaginative mixture of sci-fi and fantasy, which actually does posit an interesting solution to faster-than-light travel. On the other hand, the constant restating of the plot is annoyingly distracting (although I am now belatedly aware that this was originally published in instalments, hence the episodic nature). This would be a far better book if some time had been taken to edit the story for this omnibus edition, rather than simply mashing the episodes together. I am tempted however to keep reading the series.
