About this listen
Still hounded at every turn, Roland and his team limp home to find Dockside in turmoil.
Clandestine corporate operations have weakened the treaties between Dockside’s gangs just in time for a disaster at the docks to shut down Earth’s mightiest marketplace. On the verge of economic catastrophe, Gateways Inc. lands an army of corporate troops to seize control. Criminals and corpos make for a tense pairing, and it’s only a matter of time before something breaks and the shooting starts.
Not content to wait for that to happen, OmniCorp springs for a little extra muscle. The only surviving full-prosthesis cyborg in the galaxy shows up to have a go at New Boston’s most famous fixer, and a fair fight is not how this shooter likes to operate. It’s a full-metal slugfest as all the players collide on the streets of New Boston for one final bloody showdown.
But what is all the fuss really over? Lucia has her doubts about the corporate line, and even her father seems to be hiding important information from her. As their losses mount and total destruction inches ever closer, the fixers will have to uncover the real reason all these MegaCorps are brawling it out in their backyard.
The fires of corporate warfare are raging across New Boston, and only Roland Tankowicz and his group of misfits can stop it before all of Dockside burns to the ground. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire, and New Boston’s least favorite army-surplus cyborg has brought his matches…
Time to light a BACKBURN.

The Crash Landing the Series deserves !
The most satisfying conclusion to what turns out to be an over ten book saga I have ever read, not a lightly given title. This is it folks , sudden death overtime for everyone. All the characters have spent thier experience and are on the field in full badass mode. I will not post spoilers except to say that even earth isn't gonna be the same after this one. It stays on course and doesn't spare the horses . And save a few tears for Boston .
Please give this a read , but only after reading evereything else in the series ... cause the are more answers in this one than I ever would have expected and with NO talking head infodumps. I can't say how refreshing it was to have a sci fi series this good wrap up so brilliantly- and I used to be a librarian so I've read a lot ! The author kicked some ass through the whole series and desrves some laurels for this.
Also my hat is off to the narrator who has done some S tier narration throughout this series !
Para Bellum Readers !

A Sleeper SF Masterpiece
Wow, Backburn was a most satisfying and entertaining conclusion (so far?) to this 5-Star series. In this book, Vaillencourt unveils an Asimov-worthy greater meaning underlying the events of the entire series. I don't understand why the books in this series haven't yet attained blockbuster status! A BIG congratulations to the author on this significant and lasting contribution to the body of SF literature!
