Praise for KOP

Praise for Ex-KOP

 

"Juno Mozambe is not a nice man. You'll cheer and weep for him anyway. Him and his hard-bitten, hard-scrabble, heart-breaking world, and that's a credit to Warren Hammond's writing, which paints a vivid and powerful picture. And tells a darned good mystery to boot. This is the SF noir I've been waiting for since the film Blade Runner. You know that bit about how 'A new life awaits you on the off world colonies?' This could very well be the story of what happens on one of those off world colonies."

—Carrie Vaughn, author of Kitty and the Silver Bullet

 

"This hard-bitten follow-up to Hammond's 2007 science fiction noir debut KOP, set in the 28th century on the technologically backward world of Lagarto, offers further evidence of his considerable talents….Koba is a tough town full of desperate people, and Hammond makes full use of this richly imagined society."

—Publisher's Weekly (Starred Review)

 

"Raw.  Visceral.  Compelling.  As unforgettable as a stabbing."

—Mario Acevedo, author of X-Rated Bloodsuckers

 

"Hammond weaves a terrific yarn reminiscent of L.A. Confidential."
