How bad can it be? PRAISE FOR HOBSON & CHOI SERIES “You'll want to say you got on this guy's bandwagon early. Really.” - Chris Brosnahan, author of Deadlines and POV “Great, engaging characters who you can't help but root for.

I can’t wait for the next volume.” - Alastair JR Ball, Nimbus Space "This is one of my must-read serials.
