The people have spent years divided, fighting their fellow patriots. Now, as the regime crumbles and the bloody conflict draws to a close, the work of rebuilding begins.
One lonely crew, bonded under fire in the darkest days of battle, must complete one last mission: to secure a war criminal whose secrets could destroy the fragile peace that has just begun to form.
Bestselling author Lilith Saintcrow presents a timely and all-too-realistic glimpse of a future that we hope never comes to pass.
-
"Saintcrow's rough, rawboned prose paints a world not on the edge, but already over it, revealing an alternate history of America that is achingly relevant to the America in which we live. Simply put, Saintcrow doesn't f*** around."Chuck Wendig
-
"Incisive, timely, and important. This may be Saintcrow's finest work to date."Seanan McGuire
-
"If anyone asks whether science fiction can be relevant, point them to Afterwar."Kirkus
-
"Incredibly timely, well written and important.... A testament to Saintcrow's skill."Los Angeles Times
-
"A punch in the gut, nauseatingly compelling in its emotional realism. As well as compelling as a story: well-paced, strikingly well-characterised, and deftly written, Afterwar is a deeply accomplished novel.... I can attest to its quality without hesitation."Liz Bourke
-
"Vivid prose highlights the immediacy of battle, and the war-fractured landscape and the emotional and physical toll of fighting are realistically drawn.... An unsettling vision."Publishers Weekly
-
"Not a story for the faint of heart, Lilith Saintcrow's latest novel plays on the darkest elements of current American culture, and flashes an unmistakable warning about a potential future ruled by xenophobia and white supremacy.... Startlingly prescient."RT Book Reviews
