“The pacing was amazing. I had no trouble connecting with Calista. Connected right away, just from a brief exposure from her was enough. Invested enough to go through till the end… I find it a bit hard to put down. I mean ANDROIDS, SHIPS, GAUNTLET WEAPON, AHHHHH! It was not a chore to read.” – Bookish Wisps
REVOLUTIONS HAVE ALWAYS QUESTIONED WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN, BUT THIS ONE IS ASKING WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A MACHINE…
The creation of the twelve skyward cities did more for mankind than the renaissance of old. With them came a new species created to serve the ideals of the future. To Calista Ridley, an android is an android, just like heroes are little more than fairy tales. She knows the world is far from perfect, and that human nature is not something to be proud of. But she also sees the storm forming on the horizon. As a pilot of Voltza, her past decisions are set to shape the future in a way no one could have predicted. The lines between man and machine are blurring at a rapid pace. Innovation never comes without a price.

“TJ Lockwood again delivers steady science fiction to satisfy the reader who aches for something quality that’s grounded in another time and place. The writing is brisk, clocking in at around 140 pages, but this is worth the read…TJ Lockwood does not disappoint. The book even ends of a propulsive note, leading us to what’s next.” – Reading and Literature Resource Blog
“World building, what had happened between humans and the androids. The depiction of the world, they are in now, the aftermath of all that has happened was good. There was fair news on different sides of the world about what resulted in or what not, there and that. I find it a bit hard to put down. I mean ANDROIDS, SHIPS, GAUNLET WEAPON, AHHHHH! It was not a chore to read.” – Bookish Wisps
“This book is my first read by the author and on-base on the thought, I would say I’m surprised that how talented the author is. I’m a huge fan of this genre for a long time whether in books or in the movies and I have set very big standards for this genre. And the author, at not a single moment lets me down in the book.” – The Literal Arts
