A galaxy-spanning epic filled with intrigue, adventure-and an array of alien life-forms-Patterns of Chaosfollows a race with unique powers which make them the only beings capable of piloting faster than light ships. Caught in the midst of political and economic infighting between a number of sentient species and on the brink of civil war on their home planet, the greatest hope and peril the Choyan people face is a newly met race-humans!
While the book does have its flaws, I found it deeply addictive. It works more as a mystery than anything else, and leaves you constantly wondering. My one complaint is that it is very repetitive when it comes to describing the defining characteristics of the alien races, using nearly the same phrasing several times. Skipping these paragraphs is not difficult however, and overall I would highly recommend it.
