Review & Description
It has taken Sebastian Scatkiewicz 7 years to get his life back together again after the US Marines dumped him onto world of mass unemployment. He’s finally gotten himself some well-paid work on one of the New Worlds in the Outer-Rim, hundreds of light years away from an over-populated, climatically-challenged and resource-poor Earth. Now he’s building a new life for himself; something he wants to protect.
Only nothing in the Outer-Rim is as the brochure says. The company’s mandate to rule is under threat; the 3rd generation residents are agitating for independence; and the day-to-day politics is both muddy and murderous. Scat keeps his head down; these are things best left to the locals. He's going to ride this one out by sitting on the fence: this isn't his fight.
If only people would listen.
A Smashwords Five-Star Read: A 'compelling read with a skilfully crafted narrative that makes it hard to put down', 'clever, topical and thought provoking', 'a very enjoyable, intelligently written novel that keeps you wanting more'.
A Smashwords Four-Star Review:
'The book can be viewed as being of two distinct halves. In the first half the author seeks to establish the characters and premise for the story that follows. The long dialogues with only intermittent action might, on initial impression at least, seem somewhat pedestrian. However, a reader who perseveres with the book is richly rewarded, for just as one starts to think this novel is a typical example of the ’good wins against the evil empire’ sci fi genre, the author throws in a twist which shatters any such illusion. Occurring roughly midway through the book, it is a pivotal point, because from thereon the pace picks up rapidly, and the turn of events that follow succeed in pulling the reader ever deeper into the increasingly ambitious story line. The final chapters serve up perhaps the most intriguing and certainly the most explosive development, propelling the book into a first class page turner and leaving the reader impatient for more at its conclusion. In summary, the book’s first half is a bit of a slow burner, but serves as a touch fuse to light up a phenomenal second half, leaving readers impatient for the second volume which surely must follow from this promising author!'
