Artefact is a gripping read that moves at warp speed Jack Campbell, author of THE LOST FLEET novels Gripping, gritty and unsentimental - Sawyer shows us how perilous future war can be Michael Cobley, author of the Humanity's Fire series A hostile race of alien biomechs somewhat in the mould of H R Giger aliens ... terrorism, subterfuge and traitors ... starships sporting particle beam weapons, railguns the size of skyscrapers, laser batteries, missiles... And then there are the uber-human super-soldiers clad in powered armour and wielding plasma weapons... Is that enough for you? ... This, dear readers, is the good stuff. Recommended. Neal Asher, author of the Agent Cormac novels Hyper-speed entertainment from a new master of science fiction William C. Dietz, author of the Legion novels and HALO tie-in novels A highly promising science fiction debut - a fun, gripping adventure story, with a mystery at its core that kept me turning the pages Gary Gibson, author of STEALING LIGHT Artefact is an adrenaline shot of rip-roaring military SF packed with cinematic action sequences and tightly drawn characters. I look forward returning to the company of hardman Conrad Harris and his motley crew of simulants and soldiers time and again Stephen Deas, author of THE ADAMANTINE PALACE
