Description

Dazzling space battles, intergalactic politics, and rogue AI collide in Velocity Weapon, the first book in this epic space opera by award-winning author Megan O'Keefe.

Sanda and Biran Greeve were siblings destined for greatness. A high-flying sergeant, Sanda has the skills to take down any enemy combatant. Biran is a savvy politician who aims to use his new political position to prevent conflict from escalating to total destruction.

However, on a routine maneuver, Sanda loses consciousness when her gunship is blown out of the sky. Instead of finding herself in friendly hands, she awakens 230 years later on a deserted enemy warship controlled by an AI who calls himself Bero. The war is lost. The star system is dead. Ada Prime and its rival Icarion have wiped each other from the universe.

Now, separated by time and space, Sanda and Biran must fight to put things right.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Meticulously plotted, edge-of-your-seat space opera with a soul; a highly promising science-fiction debut." (Kirkus)

"Velocity Weapon is fast-paced, twisty, edge-of-your-seat fun. Space opera fans are in for a massive treat!" (Marina J. Lostetter, author of Noumenon)

"Velocity Weapon is a roller-coaster ride of pure delight. Furious action sequences, funny dialog, and touching family interactions all wrapped up in a plot that will keep you guessing every step of the way. This is one of the best science fiction novels of 2019." (K. B. Wagers, author of the Indranan War Trilogy)

Very good start to a new series

It's a bit long to get started by as you get towards the end the story gets more gripping and you can't drop the book anymore.

Very good start to a series by young author. Fans of The Expanse will find familiarity there.

I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS ENOUGH!

This series is AMAZING! I just binged book 1 & 2 in only a day and a half, that's how hooked this series had me. Book one is great and I kept having to pick my jaw up off the floor at all the wild twists and turns but that's cranked up many notches in the sequel. I finished Chaos Vector a few moments ago and I have to say, this is some of the best SciFi I've ever read! I need to gather my thoughts and film a YouTube video about this series first thing tomorrow morning. If you're a fan of The Expanse, there's basically no way that you'll rate this book anything less than 4★ minimum.

This book has all the great hallmarks of an epic space opera! I truly cannot recommend it enough. Just give it a try if you're on the fence and I guarantee you'll immediately be hooked.

Pay no heed to the review saying the "forced PC content" hurts the book. I literally didn't even know what they were talking about for the majority of the book. We follow 3 POV in this book. The two siblings Sanda and Biran, as well as a third character who runs heists in another star system. The woman of this 3rd POV is minor in comparison and the "horrible PC content" is simply a small non binary side character named Arden that she interacts with a bit. The fact that someone complained over suuuch a tiny aspect of the book and happened to be offended that Arden doesn't like gendered pronouns, it's honestly kind of sad and I think it says a lot about this person that the tiniest smidge of NB representation drove them up insane.
