About this listen

 THE MOST WANTED REBELS IN THE GALAXY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN SAVE IT

After an ambush leaves the Novantae resistance in tatters, the survivors scatter across the galaxy. Wanted by two great empires, the bounty on any rebel's head is enough to make a captor filthy rich. And the Seven Devils? Biggest score of them all.

The Devils take refuge on Fortuna where Ariadne gets a message with unimaginable consequences: the Oracle has gone rogue. The AI has developed a way of mass programming citizens into mindless drones. The Oracle's demand is simple: it wants its daughter Ariadne back at any cost.

Time for an Impossible to Infiltrate mission: high chance of death, low chance of success. The Devils will have to use their unique skills, no matter the sacrifice, even if that means teaming up with old enemies. Their plan? Get to the heart of the Empire. Destroy the Oracle. Burn it all to the ground. Adventure Humorous Science Fiction Space Opera Fiction Comedy Programming

Critic reviews

Seven Mercies is a worthy successor to its equally magnificent predecessor and an enthralling culmination to its sprawling yet intimate narrative.
Lam and May's follow-up to Seven Devils further explores the characters while keeping the action and emotional stakes high.
A riveting plot and super-sharp dialogue
A fun and entertaining romp.
