Reviews
"Swap out the old Soviet Union for the Illyrican Empire, the Bayern Corporation for Spectre, and Simon Kovalic's KO gun for Bond's trusty Walther PPK and you've got yourself one of the most entertaining genre mashups within an astronomical unit."
- Publishers Weekly
- John Birmingham, author of the Axis of Time series
"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, creator of Atomic Blonde and The Coldest Winter
"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
- Eric Scott Fischl, Author of Dr. Potter's Medicine Show
"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."
