Critics Review
“A wisecracking caper that nevertheless doesn’t skimp on the details and human cost of interstellar war, like John Le Carré meets The Stainless Steel Rat. Moren is one to watch.”
“Moren gives us a Cold War thriller with wormholes and anti-grav fields.”
“Hypercool. It’s like the Golden Age of sci-fi got an upgrade, with all the big honking space cannons and some desert planet dry humour thrown in for the bargain.”
“Moren is one to watch.”
“The Bayern Agenda reads like Mission Impossible set in space.”
“A frenzied story full of bold spycraft and exciting ground and air chases… Fans of suspenseful space opera will look eagerly for the next book.”
“A great spy story, with tidbits of science explaining the intergalactic travel and even a hint of romance to come.”
“one of the most entertaining genre mashups within an astronomical unit.”
