Arrival Vengance is out

I just picked up Arrival Vengeance.

"Tell Norris I'm sorry." -Emperor Strephon's last message to the
officers of the Arrival Vengeance before they depart his stronghold
across the rift back to Deneb.

Oh, and he sends ?someone? a young, 8 year old boy, (gee, precisely
the right age to be a son or clone born at the beginning of the
War...), off with the ship.
