Rubicon

Reviews

“A fresh and forward-looking story about the costs of “forever” wars and the existential anxiety of artificial intelligence. … Many recent novels are also grappling with the ethics of AI, and Dewes’s novel shines in the field. Witty and readable, it features an endearing cast of characters and fast-paced action and will have broad appeal to fans of sci-fi beyond its MilSF genre.”—Library Journal

“Dewes (the Divide series) continues to demonstrate a gift for superior hard sci-fi with a standalone outing that is simultaneously thoughtful and pulse-pounding. … Fans of smart military sci-fi will be riveted.“—Publishers Weekly

“Rubicon and the trauma in it feel terrifyingly real. I couldn’t look away.”—Mary Robinette Kowal, Hugo-award winning author of the Lady Astronaut series

“Rubicon blew me away. Concept, characters, story, I loved it all. I can’t wait to see where J.S. Dewes takes this world next!”—Nalini Singh, New York Times Bestselling author of the Psy-Changeling and Guild Hunter series

“Rubicon is non-stop military SF action with plenty of twists. I couldn’t put it down. J.S. Dewes has entered the military SF arena and firmly planted her flag as one of the best in the business today. ”—Michael Mammay, author of The Misfit Soldier

“A high-octane blend of fast action, fun characters, and deep questions. In Rubicon, not even death can set you free.”—Megan O’Keefe, author of the Protectorate series
