The first reviews are in:
"This is as much a political thriller as a science-fiction novel. The science is a solid admixture of astrophysics, evolutionary biology and computer science. There is also a great deal of geopolitics (and exopolitics) and military science. All this knowledge is woven within a taught plot line that features vaping villains that look like updated Ian Fleming power-mad tycoons and unlikely self-sacrificing heroes. The plotting is fast-paced and the writing is brisk. The dialogue is very direct and natural. There are also some gnomic statements that indicate that the author has thought about the variegated issues his story raises. A very pleasant read, hard to put down".
"A science fiction thriller. Original, fast paced, haunting. One of the best."
"Roman Godzich concocted a fascinating story mixing politics, technology, science and fiction all of it supported by fascinating characters. I loved it from start to finish and can't wait for a sequel"
