The Empire is a political entity that encompasses hundreds of colonized worlds united by a common language (Esperanto) and under a single individual, the Emperor. But the Empire is getting old and creaky. Its government is riddled with corruption and is choking on red tape. The Space Force is bloated with the incompetent who have risen to high rank due to nepotism and patronage. The Emperor has been assassinated, and the Empire is surrounded by alien races that are becoming more hostile and more powerful as time goes on.
When an exploration fleet in the rift between sections of the spiral arm are attacked by an unknown race, the dead Emperor's clone-son, now on the throne, recognizes that the Empire is standing at the edge of an abyss and must find a way to not only win this new war against the alien aggressors but also overcome the inertia of the arrogant Space Force officers who are more ready to overthrow their Emperor than fight the war.

Empire in Crisis (Audible Audio Edition) Dietmar Wehr Luke Daniels Podium Publishing Books Reviews
I am a fan of space opera, urban fantasy, all kinds of other fantasy and,when I find an author I enjoy, it is an occasion for celebration. I have read Wehr's Synchronicity series and Valkyrie and enjoyed them tremendously. Empire In Crisis was an exciting and enjoyable read. Always good to meet new alien species . Whether they will end up as allies is a subject to be decided in another book. Well worth the price of the book.
As the author says "love live space opera" and he does the genre proud. Wonderful characters; I really look forward to their development in subsequent books (I truly hope that there are more). I especially enjoyed the Emperor; fantastic job on him. Lots of action and intrigue.
I started reading Wehr with the Syncronicity War series. This series looks like it might have some potential. Wehr always creates some interesting universes and this is the case with Empire. The character development in this series leaves a little to be desired. I get the feeling that if the universe was a painting, the characters here are just sort of penciled in. There is a great deal of 'back story' that seems missing. Maybe Wehr will use the following books to fill it in.
Mr. Wehr is an excellent writer. His plot is believable (as much as any space opera can be said to be believable). His characters are interesting. His battle scenes are well done. The political scenes are also believable. The Physics of space flight and communication are stretched but not too badly, it could happen as he describes. All in all a very good read!
We start with a prologue that sets the stage and explains the subsequent actions. We then join an exploration group that is mapping a series of wormholes when they are set upon by an unlucky 13 ships of slightly superior capability. One explorer ship escapes to warn the Empire of a hostile race. The following is a description of actions taken by an emperor to combat incompetence, nepotism, revolt, and a deadly enemy. The action is very fast and compelling, but as with this kind of story, the solutions are a little convenient. Nothing gross such as to cause one to say that it is unbelievable. Mr. Wehr even throw in a few scary scenarios when it looks as if the plan is going to go awry, but everything works out. After all, this is a story and our side wins in the end, right? Nevertheless there are numerous twists and turns that keeps one at the edge of their seat with all questions resolved in the end. Mr. Wehr is a good writer, and this book is a worthwhile read.
A lovely tale of an old space-based empire beset with in-fighting and political maneuverings. Unfortunately, other species are also vying for control of adjacent space whom the old empire tries to keep at bay with its technological advantages. Then a new species is encountered that has considerable technological power of their own and the old empire is in crisis. Like many crises, old ways and established people must be displaced and new ways and people must advance or the empire will lose. This tale examines the strategic moves that must accompany any such changes in order to win and maintain the empire. This one is well worth the read ! Here's hoping for a follow-on to this lovely tale.
I've read most of Wehr's books, and have been very entertained.
What sets them apart is their originality. They are going to take in the strategic big picture with a unique perspective. The Synchronicity books are are my favorites so far. Back when I read them, I was impressed by the ideas generated by the new to me situations. Sending messages back through time so that their earlier selves could take a differen part of the decision tree and perhaps survive.
I like the Rumors books, but not as much. Never-the-less, I appreciated in the carefully thought out details of travel within a solar system. Of the difficulties of managing an empire where communication takes months. Fascinating, really. These two series are well worth purchasing for the read. I reread the Synchronicity books.
Now the Empire In Crisis. All humanity consolidated under one emporer. The empire faces hostile neighboring alien races, but fortunately they aren't as advanced as humans. Then human warships encounter technologically superior and hostile alien warships.
I think this book is a bit too idealistic for me. Merit eventually wins out over politics. Really? Not in any universe in which I've lived or dreamed about. A junior space navy officer arises to take command, lead humanity to victory in a war for species survival, then negotiate humanity's entrance into a new age of enlightenment, opportunity and prosperity. And an emperor who is wise and benevolent?
No,, Empire in Crisis isn't as good as sunchronicity. But I recommend reading it for a nice time. It is still very good science fiction.
