Critics Review

TRACER is the literary equivalent of a base jump: fast, exhilarating and unforgettable, and once you start it you can’t stop. I loved it. * Sarah Lotz, author of THE THREE *Exhilarating and guaranteed to keep you hooked until the very last page * GLAMOUR *TRACER sets a new standard for all-action SF * Ken MacLeod *Relentlessly fast pace…Vivid action scenes * SFX *Compelling, compulsive…Thoroughly entertaining - this one’s worth picking up if you’re in the mood for some sci-fi action. * SCIFI AND FANTASY REVIEWS *If you’re after a fast-paced, action-packed, cinematic space adventure, then Tracer is absolutely for you … A promising debut, I think Rob Boffard is an author to watch * CIVILIAN READER *Riley Hale battles to save the last remnants of humanity in the claustrophobic, brilliantly evoked world of a crumbling space station where danger lies around every corner. A stunning debut by Rob Boffard that never lets up, from the nerve-jangling beginning to the explosive end * James Douglas, author of THE DOOMSDAY TESTAMENT *From its very first page, Tracer leaps into life and the pace doesn’t drop until the end … This is not an easy novel to put down, the space station dramatically imagined, and I look forward to seeing where we are taken next. * FOR WINTER NIGHTS *I absolutely loved this book. Boffard’s style of writing is ingenious. He has created a world within this book that is both mesmerising and terrifying at the same time … This is one that will go down in history as a classic novel. * THE WRITER’S RAMBLES *Ludicrously fast-paced, with a brilliant sci-fi setting, TRACER is an absolute blast of a read * David Owen, author of PANTHER *A hugely enjoyable and exciting space dystopia … I loved this. I’ll definitely be looking out for the next book in the series . . this isn’t just for fans of science fiction and space stories … If you like exciting and twisty thrillers (with a side order of action), you may find this right up your street. * Nudge Book *
