The physics are so tight it feels like he spent hours plotting out each scene with a slide rule, and the characters so lovingly drawn I believed in them from the first line of dialog--including one of the most convincing post-GPT AIs I've seen in print... promises a good old-fashioned hard sci-fi adventure and then delivers so much more.”—Johnny Schmidt, author of Failure Mode“This is the best new hard sci-fi I've read in a long time. It follows in the best traditions of Asimov, Heinlein, Niven, Vinge, Card, Zahn, and the like.”—JT, Space Force Systems Engineer“...one hell of a yarn. It has the character development of John Varley, the plot twists of Robert E Taylor, battle scenes reminiscent of Jack Campbell, and the dramatic angst of Stephen R. Donaldson. Behind it all is an irreverent Nivenesque humor. This story grabbed me in minutes and called me back whenever I set it down.”—Uncle Bob Martin, author of Clean Code“Great characters, plot, and not insulting to the reader's intelligence.”—Ryan Lackey, SCO of Evertas“As an asteroid scientist, I found Theft of Fire to be refreshingly scientifically accurate without reading as if the author wanted to impress you with his research into the topic. Asteroid mining is a hot topic right now with a lot of misinformation floating around, and I am happy to say Theft of Fire is not guilty of contributing to it.”—Lauren McGraw, asteroid scientist
