Book Two of Dogs of War
by Adrian Tchaikovsky
Mars. The red planet. A new frontier for humanity, a civilisation where humans can live in peace, lord and master of all they survey.
But this isn’t Space City from those old science-fiction books. We live in Hell City, built into and from a huge subcontinent-sized crater. There’s a big silk canopy over it, feeding out atmosphere as we generate it, little by little, until we can breathe the air.
It’s a perfect place to live, if you actually want to live on Mars. I guess at some point I had actually wanted to live on Mars, because here I am. The money was supposed to be good, and how else was a working Joe like me supposed to get off-planet exactly? But I remember the videos they showed us – guys, not even in suits, watching robots and bees and Bioforms doing all the work – and they didn’t quite get it right…

And it’s Tchaikovsky – so you can never tell what’s going to happen next! Though I cannot believe that yet ANOTHER book is coming out already. The man is a writing machine!

He is, isn’t he?! And no sooner had you replied then I received an e-mail from amazon informing me he has another book coming out in March, called One Day All This Will Be Yours!
I’m starting to suspect he has actually found a number of parallel universes and is using an infinite number of Tchaikovskys to write his books! 😂

I think he’s finally got hold of a writing clone. I WANT ONE!!!

I haven’t read the first in this series, but gosh does this blurb make the character sound so jaded — and at the same time, I want to know how he got to this point!
