Rated Honor's Knight 8/10

Sometimes cliches work. "Action packed" truly covers <i>Honor's Knight</i>, with a breakneck pace and more alien monsters than you can shake a blaster at. Compared to the first in the series there is less of the bodice-ripper subtext and more plot twists and reversals but Bach keeps things moving so quickly it's impossible to spot the holes (which are few). She knows how to do Space Opera right and I look forward to reading #3 and finally discovering what the hell is going on.

So my book is on promotion on Kobo, discounted to $0 from 3rd to 9th August, but I think it's only available in these locations: CA, US, UK, AU, NZ. It's being featured on the Free Page of Diverse Stories, so hoping it gets some more attention. Help spread the word!

Here is a link to get it.

Rated The River Warriors 10/10

Rated Twice as Dead 8/10

Rated Green City Wars 10/10

His <i>Dogs of War</i> series made it clear that Tchaikovsky is intrigued by the idea of "augmented service animals" or <i>Gehirner</i> and has the wit and vivid imagination to spin a fascinating story from it. I'll leave the plot synopsis to the copy writers at Tor because it's far too wild and amusing for me to make the attempt. I came late to Tchaikovsky because those descriptions can be intimidating to an ancient sf reader. Thank God the man is prolific as Hell because I've got a huge amount of back catalog to work my way through. Suffice it to say that he's a genius and a cracking good storyteller. <i>Green City Wars</i> brought me enormous pleasure.
