Greetings, travelers! We’re back today with another stop in the Otherworld, and another visit to a part of the galaxy that we’ve been to before. That’s because we’re once again spending time with talented author Andrew Charles, who has recently released the newest book in the Coalition series. If exciting world-hopping and political upheaval over the great expanse of space is up your alley, read on to learn more about The Way to Baen.
One of the things that author Andrew Charles does to great effect is to take some paths in his story that might be unexpected. So it is in The Way to Baen, the fifth book in the Coalition series. It thrives, in part, because it is able to surprise, even this deep into the series. But at its heart, the Coalition series excels when the author focuses on its characters, and there is no fear of a misstep in that regard here. The Way to Baen continues to shine a laser on the relationships and the development at hand in its appealing cast—whether you’re talking about delightful protagonists, or those who stand in their way. As colorful as Charles makes his version of the galaxy, he paints with clever and careful shades of grey to ensure that you can understand and empathize with everyone who has a stake to claim.
