Ritual sacrifice, decapitation, murderous rages... and these are the good guys. Space is dark.

The Dawn has left Earth far behind on a mission through hyperspace to attack a Warp Tether, a cosmic lighthouse which bends space to shorten interstellar travel times. Destroying it would put Earth out of the Jir Pentarchy's reach for years. It would also keep the Dawn from returning home, something many among them are eager to do. Even if it means mutiny.

A powerful improvement to Arixa's alien weapon, the ironglove, makes her deadlier than ever, but if she's forced to use it to keep control of her own war band, then her crusade against the Jir may be over before it begins. Instead of becoming a valuable source of recruits for a rebel horde, the 80,000 humans and aliens asleep in the holds of the Sagaris will die, or worse.

The Jir are not idle in the face of Arixa's threats. A fallen admiral commanding just five destroyers has been assigned to defend the Warp Tether. But his ambitious number two seems to have a more aggressive strategy in mind for catching the upstart Lessers.

The second battle of human vs. Jir will be fought with weapons ranging from arrows to warp-enabled warships, on foot among alien trees and in the majestic rings of a gas giant. Join Arixa and the Dawn as they take one giant leap from the steppe to the stars and become WARP NOMADS.

Fair warning: this space adventure gets dark. Victory is never assured. Barbarian captain Arixa is not a traditional space opera hero. She's a savage, and not a noble one. That said, the book is not explicit or gratuitous, and there's a fair share of light to balance out her darkness. Mount up, if you're ready!

As of 2023, I'm writing a post-apocalyptic serial under the name ARIES NADAIYA on Amazon's Kindle Vella. You can read the first three episodes free. A 4-book series called The MX is already complete and will be released in episode format prior to its publication as novels.

ARIES NADAIYA is an anagram of my wife and two daughters' names. Search for it, Follow, and I hope to see you on Vella!

5.0 out of 5 stars A solid follow up!

Mr. Lentz has did it again, another solid follow up to a great beginning! This book #2 in the Scythian Dawn series which follows Arixa a female Scythian war band leader and her right hand man Ivar, a loyal Viking warrior, and the rest of her iron age Scythian war band as they leave earth to bring war and death to earths enemy, a race of alien overlords called the Jir. They will face many hardships and unknowns as they battle formidable adversaries and struggle to survive and stick together in a foreign environment (I mean we're talking Iron age barbarians in space here!) thier unity, morale, and strength will be tested to its limits. If you love a strong female lead with plenty of witty kick arse henchmen in tow, that Don't hesitate to crack open a few skulls, then don't miss this follow up to the 1st book in the series Scythian Dawn.
PS. I am definitely looking forward to seeing what comes next for this day tag war band bent on alien destruction in book 3!

PK Lentz Keeps getting better at these ancient and futuristic Time overlays. I really like the way he has expanded Arixas character and given her a different dimension with the Leadership of a group of Shanghai-ed crew and others. It would be interesting to see how this further plays out with the Jir. Maybe give the spaceship an A.I. Personality to help with operations and war-fighting. Zhi is gonna go mental doing everything by herself! You guys should read this - I finished it in a night as I needed to see how the outcome would be presented- . Alas - we must wait for the next book!

The first book was good, this second installment had my wife fussing at me to go to sleep several times. The characters and the constant action, twists and totally unexpected turns in the plots, several at the same time, had me completely sucked up. Every once in a while there is a story that stands out head and shoulders above all others, this is one of the few I have read and lived along the war band fighting their oppressors! I highly recommend!

The story line was good, but the language in book 2 was worse than the first and no appropriate for teen readers.

This series is unique to say the least.
In the first book, against all odds, the rock beat the iron tank, so to speak.
But now the savage tribe got their hands on some high tech hardware and are taking the fight to the bad dudes and dudettes.
It made for not only a different environment, but a different everything and with the cast mostly the same, still full of bad intentions.
This is science fiction and it’s fun.
Sticks and stones can definitely break heads!
And lasers can too!
This story is full of fun fiction. Read it now!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2019
Verified Purchase
After the first book I thought this series might have potential; however, the second book pretty much put that idea to rest. While the author acknowledges a dislike for cliff hanger endings, the book to my mind does end on a cliff hanger which follows one disaster after another leaving me feeling it was overall a depressing book. The disasters were mostly based on the actions of our supposed heroine, Arixa, who turns out to be not a very sympatric character. Her decisions have almost wiped out her Dawn troop. I can find no reason to continuing the series.

Addictive, you just cannot put his books down.
Left wanting more all the time, as the song says "I just can't get enough".
You know, sometimes you see a title and read the synopsis and you think, maybe aye, maybe naw, but then you read it and you are blown away,
Love this author, on my watchlist for new titles coming out, brilliant, 5 star rating from me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lost empathy with the hero early on.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 28, 2019

I picked this book up after reading the first with some enthusiasm and anticipation.
It didn't take me long though to realise I no longer cared for the success or failure of the hero. I appreciate the author was trying to convey the savagery of a barbarian tribe thrown into a galactic war but he was maybe too successful and alienated me from the heroes ultimate objective to the extent that I started to root for the bad guys-finish them off and get on with running the galaxy. Maybe others will enjoy it but I'd like my heroes to have a bit more humanity about them.

Not a dull moment at any point, never drags, kept me glued. That is the best compliment I could give any book. I'm really enjoying the premise of primitive tribe trying to adjust to a space future setting.
I've just finished book 2 and going to immediately start book 3. Another compliment I give to this series so far.
