No need to read previous books in the series - although I recommend highly that you do.The story line is that consensus exists that an immortal warrior would decrease the human toll in the many wars, both civil, planetary and star system wide. At least it's consensus within the framework of the book. The combatants include Empress Jamyl of the Amarr, Mordu's Legion of mercenaries for hire, the Federation Fleet, the Ashkone and the Caldari.Everyone is out for themselves and to stop the others from creating an immortal warrior. When one of the groups suceed the race is on to capture the immortal warrior, called Templar One, and reverse engineer the process for personal gain.Of course the group that created Templar One knows there is a significant problem associated with the process and is determined to stop the other groups from stealing their technology, regardless of it's flaws.It all comes to a shocking conclusion in an epic battle in space and on Make System - Planet II: Pikes Landing .Finally, as a technological bonus to you, the book has QR Code Content built in. Just use your smart phone and additional information becomes available to you. This is not necessary to read the book but just an added bonusVERY VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Full-bodied story telling with solid science-fact. *by I***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 18, 2012* Fantastic.To explain why, first consider that most science fiction tends towards the "shock and awe" category, leaning heavily on advanced technological concepts (or gimmicks) to tickle the reader's imagination... sadly, this usually falls into unrealistic story world environments, which makes the story far less believable, and therefore destroys that crucial ability to immerse oneself in the story.Now, despite the high-science atmosphere of the EVE universe, Tony Gonzales maintains that crucial element of believability, using the technological concepts to the fullest WITHOUT relying on them to make the story for him. He pays a lot of attention to key elements in economy, sociocultural behavior, politics, historical context, and the interplay between these things... an attention which is key to breathing life into a universe so vast and open as the one he writes his stories within.Even better, he does all this without abandoning the development of individual characters. Note that this is plural: he fully explores the behavior, development, and occasional introspection of each both separately and interactively.Finally, all of the science in the universe is developed believably. All of it is based on actual (not hypothetical) science and scientific phenomenon, with real applicability towards how it may be used. I say this as a physicist, who appreciates a hearty dose of REAL science in his science "fiction." -- However, Tony Gonzales does not get much credit for this part, since most of it was developed within the game's universe (EVE Online) before he wrote the story. What he does get credit for, though, is for applying it correctly, without fantasizing, exaggerating, or over-emphasizing any of it.Well done overall. He's now one of my favorite authors. :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent EVE Online story, not too shabby SF *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 2, 2012* As an avid EVE player and SF buff in general (Cherryh, Ringo, Bujold, Webber etc) I've read the EVE novels and most of the CCP dev published fiction. It's ranged from the level of "professional fan-fic" to pretty dang good SF.Templar One is great EVE fiction and I think it's best so far. Empyrian Age was good I thought. Gonzales' Burning Life was. . .OK. I have to admit, as a matter of fact, I really didn't care for Burning Life. I found the plot kind of a "grand tour" of EVE settings and the characterization thin at best. The plot in that one was a bit schitzy and disorganized.Gonzales actually hits his stride as a writer in this novel. Old characters from Burning Life return and their stories are iterated on. I'm not sure that i "like" any of his characters yet, but the story is fine space opera and (spoiler alert) the action scenes are well done, such as the multi-sided fleet scrum over a planet nobody wants.A pity that Gonzales was part of the "20%" lay off at CCP. If this book is any indication of his actual talent as a writer, I think he'll be be doing fine if he decides to stick with this as a profession. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/9529901-eve-templar-one-eve-series-paperback-january-3-2012](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/9529901-eve-templar-one-eve-series-paperback-january-3-2012) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
