Reviews

“Hypercool. It’s like the Golden Age of sci-fi got an upgrade, with all the big honking space cannons and some desert planet dry humor thrown in for the bargain.”
— John Birmingham, author of the Axis of Time trilogy

“Dan Moren is best known as a podcaster and tech blogger, but that could soon change. This debut novel is a brisk and fun adventure with spies, family drama, and space battles, carried off with a light touch and an old-school style that’s entirely welcome in the frequently grimdark world of modern genre fiction, and a main character you won’t soon forget.”
—Ross Johnson, B&N.com Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog

"Highly recommended, snarky sci-fi adventure."
— Joe Zieja, author of Mechanical Failure

"A wisecracking caper that nevertheless doesn't skimp on the details and human cost of interstellar war, like John Le Carré meets The Stainless Steel Rat. Moren is one to watch."
—Antony Johnston, author of Atomic Blonde and The Coldest Winter

“. . . the action scenes, both on the ground and in space, show a focus on thoughtful planning and careful pacing. The characterization delves just enough into emotionality to give the characters realism without moving the focus away from fights, intrigue, and spycraft.”
— Publishers Weekly

"Immersive, intergalactic spy-fi. Moren gives us a Cold War thriller with wormholes and anti-grav fields."
— John August, screenwriter of Titan A.E. and Big Fish

"This is a great spy story, with tidbits of science explaining the intergalactic travel and even a hint of romance to come."
