About this listen
In a sequel to the much-praised Dogs of War, Honey the genetically engineered bear takes a ride in Jimmy the Martian's head and starts a revolution on the Red Planet.
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. It's more like Hell City, built into and from a huge crater. There's a big silk canopy over it, feeding out atmosphere as we generate it, little by little, because we can't breathe the air here.
I guess it's a perfect place to live, if you want to live on Mars. At some point I must have 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 going 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.

So many ideas!
A great sequel to dogs of war. Takes the ideas in that book and builds on them. Hard to say which is better, but this is certainly a bit more chilling (until the very end where it’s perhaps too honest about the limitations of the villain).

Amazing mindF*ck
Give the characters a chance to show what they are capable of and sit back and enjoy the ride. Brilliant

A Worthy Sequel
Another really enjoyable storyline with fascinating new characters and surprising arcs for some familiar from book one. Thought provoking if you want to ponder, or just sit back and appreciate the journey. I haven't enjoyed any story - scifi or other, as much since Andy Weir's off-world novel Hail Mary.

Laurence Bouvard has own defn of sentence
Each chapter is narrated from the perspective of a different actor, and the story chops and changes between each of about 6 different actors in all. For me, some of the storylines are fun and interesting, others a boring and bland. It's hard to stick through the boring stuff just in case there is something relevant to the storylines you actually enjoy - when they eventually come back around. Laurence Bouvard's narration is also wrecks it a bit for me. Has this habit of really long pauses at odd places mid way through sentences. Example, second sentence uttered by this narrator: "Springer sat in the control room <PAUSE> and watched the different camera angles.", and on and on. The the other two narrators are better.
