Reviews
“Exciting, scary, fun, smart. sad, and moving all at the same time. You need this book in your life.”
“A thrilling labyrinth of plot twists exploring loyalty, trust, and promises.”
“Far-future corporate dystopia plus deep-space mystery plus powerful character drama.”
“A twisty, political space opera about corporate espionage and alien contact…Space opera enthusiasts will enjoy this fast-paced tale and look forward to more from Osborne.”
“With its swiftly paced narrative, exciting battle scenes, an economic-class-based society run by corporations, an alien race straight out of Burroughs’ John Carter of Mars, and human-alien hybrid experimentation reminiscent of The X-Files, Osborne’s excellent debut will be enjoyed by science fiction adventure fans.”
