***SHORTLISTED FOR THE PHILIP K. DICK AWARD***
The last thing Sanda remembers is her gunship exploding.
She expected to be recovered by salvage-medics and to awaken in friendly hands, patched-up and ready to rejoin the fight. Instead she wakes up 230 years later, on a deserted enemy starship called The Light of Berossus - or, as he prefers to call himself, 'Bero'.
Bero tells Sanda the war is lost. That the entire star system is dead.
But is that the full story? After all, in the vastness of space, anything is possible . . .
Dazzling space battles, deadly galactic politics and rogue AI collide in Velocity Weapon, an epic space opera from award-winning author Megan E. O'Keefe.

Opinie krytyków
A brilliantly plotted yarn of survival and far-future political intrigue
A complicated, thoughtful tale that skillfully interweaves intrigue, action, and strong characterization
Full of twists, feints, and deception, O'Keefe's latest presents a visionary world rife with
political intrigue and space adventure
political intrigue and space adventure
A well-written tale of space adventure, underhanded political dealings and AI rights all wrapped up in a fast-paced plot and a well-thought-out world. A must-read for fans of James S. A. Corey and Alastair Reynolds
Meticulously plotted, edge-of-your-seat space opera with a soul; a highly promising science-fiction debut
O'Keefe keeps the pace pumping, timing the big twists perfectly
An entertaining SF thriller
A mix of space opera action and interplanetary political shenanigans, Velocity Weapon is a good match for readers of John Scalzi
A great premise, compelling plot, and engaging cast of characters . . . from an author worth keeping an eye on
The twists come fast and furious . . . This one shouldn't be overlooked
World building is not convincing, either, as well as character development. They mostly remain flat, bordering on annoying (especially the overstretched "romance"). What also struck me as weird is that the author doesn't seem to understand military rand and procedure, which would've been easy to research. A sergeant commanding a ship... well, no.
The only highlight is the narrator, who is able to perform a lot of characters in a distibuishable and versatile way. This clearly gains the audio book an extra star.
All in all an unmemorable story only worth your attention if you're starving for the next Peter F. Hamilton novel.
