Veteran was a slam-bang dive into a violent SF future-now things get serious

The high-powered sequel to Veteran sees an unlikely hero make an even more unlikely return, in order to take the reader back into a vividly rendered bleak future.

But it's a bleak future where there are still wonders: man traveling out into the universe, Blade Runner-esque cities hanging from the ceilings of vast caverns, and aliens that we can barely comprehend. Gavin Smith writes fast-moving, incredibly violent sci-fi thrillers, but behind the violence and the thrills lies a carefully thought-out story and characters who have far more to them than first meets the eye.

Never one to avoid controversy, Smith nevertheless invites readers to think beyond the initial shock of what they have just read. But in the meantime? Another fire fight, another chase, and another flight of imagination.

About the Author

Gavin Smith lives in Leicester. With a degree in media production and an MA in Medieval History he is the worst person in the world to watch a historical movie with. He may be the best person to write the next book you read if you like your SF cranked up to maximum.

Industry Reviews
Gavin Smith's writing is a brutal kaleidoscope of imagination, with the raw energy of a heavy metal album cover: equally dazzling with bloodthirsty ancient Picts and the fallen post-humans of tomorrow. -- Hannu Rajaniemi, author of The Causal Angel
Age Of Scorpio announces loud and clear that in Gavin Smith an exceptional talent has arrived to uplift SF. The book is a master class of twisting plot lines that celebrate both the weird and astounding, amid a future that's deeply unnerving yet equally compelling. -- Peter F Hamilton
