New Liberty City has their own Superheroes! Designed by Stellaxis, the Operatives keep the city safe from the invading corporation, Greenleaf. He described one of her earlier novels as the best novel he’s read in ten years, maybe ever. I love her books so much that I force my husband to read them. Nicole Kornher-Stace is the best author you haven’t read yet. Imagine if property decided to steal itself.įirebreak is one of the best books I’ve read this year. Because they aren’t superheroes, they are property.

Or maybe they did know, but they couldn’t escape their employers. Imagine if a superhero didn’t know who they were. The first half of Firebreak was everything I wanted Ready Player One to be, smashed up with everything I wanted An Absolutely Remarkable Thing to be, and then the story went gloriously off the rails and I when I heard a name that rang a bell I realized I also recognized that sword/gun combo, and I ran and grabbed some other books off my bookshelf because I HAD to read those too all of a sudden. It’s got a TON of stuff going on, and I cried all the time while I was reading the end, a hustle based economy sucks, and when the government makes a few stupid decisions, the consequences last, um, forever. But then I realized I wasn’t saying the most important thing first, and who the heck wants to read eight paragraphs to finally get to the most important thing, which is:

I was gonna write one of those really indepth reviews, where I give you all the background on Mallory’s world and “how we got here”.
