The Soldier provides everything we demand from Asher: a beautifully
complex universe where AIs, aliens and post-humans scheme and
struggle – magnificently awesome. Then Asher turns it up to
eleven

A richly imagined, exotic world, nonstop action, and unimaginable
stakes - I couldn't put The Soldier down
*Yoon Ha Lee, author of Ninefox Gambit*
Neal Asher's coruscating mix of epic space opera, weaponised
Darwinism and high-stakes intrigue channels the primal flame of
deep-core science fiction
