So, he's done it again. Another fantastic book from Adrian Tchaikovsky. This is the third in his Dogs of War series, and hopefully not the last, though if this series has to end this is a good place to end it.
Once again the writing is excellent, and once again Tchaikovsky gives you a bunch of unusual characters to fall in love with. Irae and Wells are definitely up there with some of his oddest characters, and made this an extra fun read. I especially loved Irae's irreverent attitude and the gradual unveiling of each progressively disturbing surprise.
If you've not read any Tchaikovsky then this series is a good place to start. The three books are all relatively short and effectively standalone, though reading them in order is probably a good idea.
Another five-star read for me, and another reminder why I love this guy's writing.
