Dogs of War

Dogs of War, Book 1

A bio-engineered dog fights for its life and its right to life. From the Arthur C. Clark Award-winning author of CHILDREN OF TIME.

My name is Rex. I am a good dog.

Rex is also seven foot tall at the shoulder, bulletproof, bristling with heavy calibre weaponry and his voice resonates with subsonics especially designed to instil fear. With Dragon, Honey and Bees, he's part of a Multiform Assault Pack operating in the lawless anarchy of Campeche, Mexico. A genetically engineered Bioform, he's a deadly weapon in a dirty war. All he wants to be is a Good Dog. And to do that he must do exactly what Master says and Master says he's got to kill a lot of enemies.

But who, exactly, are the enemies? What happens when Master is tried as a war criminal? What rights does the Geneva Convention grant weapons? Do Rex and his fellow Bioforms even have a right to exist?

And what happens when Rex slips his leash?

The Depths of Questions Eternal

This was not the brain-candy read/listen I first took it be.
I lost count of how many existential topics, epiphanies and quandaries this book dredged up so subtly. It was like being filleted alive without noticing. I can’t even look at my dog right now… and that is the least of it.

Very Good

Smart Sci Fi. Well written and engaging. Honey the Bear is a G. All the bio forms were cool af

Imaginative & thought provoking

I LOVED this book!! The cast was great, characters well developed & realistic while keeping such an unusual story believable. I’m excited to read the next book in the series!

Fantastic sci-fi entry

REX IS A GOOD DOG!!!! Fantastic book it left me feeling a little empty in a good way. I loved Rex so much.

Excellent work, as expected

Adrian Tchaikovsky never fails to please, but this was an exceptional story. Hopefully we see it made into a miniseries
