IT IS HERE

So this came out today.

Actually, that’s not quite right. Release dates in publishing are so fluid and strange that the book has actually been available for a couple of weeks now. Shops have been putting it out on various days. Amazon allowed it to be downloaded two days ago. All the same, the book has an official street date of 21 Jan, which is today, which means this is when my nerves and anxiety really peak.

It’s the same as it was when TRACER came out. That sense of: have I done enough? Did I do the right things to let people know about this book? What if nobody reads it? Shit, what if people DO read it and hate it? What if –

And then I calm myself down, and drink more coffee.

The book is a sequel to 2015’s TRACER. That book told the story of Riley Hale, a courier on the city-sized Outer Earth space station who discovers she’s been transporting body parts. That story embroiled Riley and her buddies in a conspiracy to destroy the station.

ZERO-G picks up six months later. Riley is slowly putting her life back together, trying to fit into her new job as a member of the station’s police corps. But there’s someone out there with a vendetta, who will blackmail her into breaking a very dangerous prisoner out of jail…and if she doesn’t do what he says, she won’t be walking away at the end of it.

ZERO-G kicks ass. I know it’s bad form for an author to big up their own book, but I really believe it does. It takes all the action and insanity of TRACER, and turns it up to 11. It’s a fucking blast.

Riley showed me even more of herself for this one, and she let me take her to some seriously dark places. I didn’t know where the book was going to go when I sat down to write it, back in 2013, but I’m very pleased with where Riley and her friends ended up. I hope you’ll be, too.

You can actually win a copy here.
