Recenzii
Rex, a 2-metre-tall bioengineered dog, is one of the most achingly human characters I have ever encountered in an SF novel. A gripping dive into bioethics and artificial intelligence
This is superior stuff, tackling big themes - gods, messiahs, artificial intelligence, alienness - with brio
A joy from start to finish. Entertaining, smart, surprising and unexpectedly human
Detailed and clever worldbuilding... Tchaikovsky pulls off an impressive feat in making Rex's character evolution genuinely moving. Readers will be wowed
A timely warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence and super weapons in the hands of unscrupulous powers
The novel [is] thoughtful and emotionally affecting, yet also exciting and unpredictable
Tchaikovsky is a phenomenal author, a modern powerhouse of fiction... Speculative fiction at its best'
When it comes to science fiction, my primitive brain always craves action and pretty explosions. My higher self is looking for a plot that forces me to engage my brain and think. With Dogs of War, Adrian Tchaikovsky has managed the near impossible and delivered both masterfully
A novel which takes war and broadens the concept to include peacetime ramifications of this new frontier technology through sociopolitical commentary which in turn gives the characters and theme a 360 feel delivered through a multi POV narrative... This book is great, read it'
The nuance of the story could easily have been lost in imagery of massive animals running impossible missions, but Tchaikovsky is a skilled navigator and guides us deftly along to a very satisfying conclusion... The work of an author on the very top of his game'
A chilling portrayal of the future, humanised, ironically, by the lovability of the primary character, Rex... Tchaikovsky demonstrates, yet again, that he is an excellent storyteller whether in fantasy of science fiction'
A pretty stellar work of speculative fiction... I promise you'll never see dogs in the same way again'
