About this ebook
The high-powered sequel to VETERAN sees an unlikely hero make an even more unlikely return to take the reader back into a vividly rendered bleak future. But a bleak future where there are still wonders: man travelling out into the universe, Bladerunneresque cities hanging from the ceilings of vast caverns, aliens that we can barely comprehend.
Gavin Smith writes fast-moving, incredibly violent SF thrillers but behind the violence and the thrills lies a carefully thought out story and characters who have far more to them than first meets the eye.
Never one to avoid controversy Gavin Smith nevertheless invites you to think beyond the initial shock of what you have just read. But in the meantime? Another fire-fight, another chase another flight of imagination.

Loved this sequel! The plot was paced well, and was a great Cyberpunk story. Loving Gavin's style, and his plot twists are well written. I thoroughly recommend this book and this author.

I love Joe Haldeman, I love William Gibson, and I hope Gavin Smith will take it as a compliment when I say that this - and Veteran - read a lot like the two combined. Loved it. Loved it to pieces.
