Omschrijving
A gripping space opera, from the bestselling author of the Agent Cormac series
The Soldier provides everything we demand from Asher: a beautifully complex universe where AIs, aliens and post-humans scheme and struggle – magnificently awesome. Then Asher turns it up to eleven
A richly imagined, exotic world, nonstop action, and unimaginable stakes - I couldn't put The Soldier down
Neal Asher's coruscating mix of epic space opera, weaponised Darwinism and high-stakes intrigue channels the primal flame of deep-core science fiction
Asher is a modern master of Sci-Fi
This is space opera at a high peak of craftsmanship
Neal Asher divides his time between Essex and Crete, mostly at a keyboard and mentally light-years away. His full-length novels are the Agent Cormac series: Gridlinked, The Line of Polity, Brass Man, Polity Agent and Line War. The Spatterjay series: The Skinner, The Voyage of the Sable Keech and Orbus. Set in the same Polity are: Hilldiggers, Prador Moon, Shadow of the Scorpion, The Technician, and also the Transformation trilogy: Dark Intelligence, War Factory and Infinity Engine. In a dystopian future are: The Departure, Zero Point and Jupiter War, while Cowl takes us across time. The Soldier, the first book in the Rise of the Jain series, returns to the Polity.
