Perfect for you if...

You love The Expanse and want to explore Corey's universe before the main series kicks off.
You're drawn to military sci-fi that asks what we sacrifice when we weaponise ourselves.
You prefer novellas that pack world-building and philosophy into tighter narratives than sprawling novels.

Maybe not for you if...

You need character arcs that span multiple books; a novella might leave you wanting more development.
You prefer stories focused on politics or intrigue over combat and body horror.
You're looking for optimistic sci-fi; this is relentlessly dark about warfare and human modification.
