New Review of The War Beneath

New Review Alert: 

A new review has appeared over at online review site THE FUTURE FIRE.  It’s a generally positive review, quite comprehensive, discussing everything from the plot to character development to the story’s political ramifications to the diagrams I included in the book.

From the Review:

“Johnston creates an engaging world that is highly believable … (he) builds a sense of authenticity by weaving in details that anchor the story in reality … an intriguing look at the potential and the politics of colonizing the ocean floor. While The War Beneath is a satisfying read with action that draws the reader into the story, perhaps equally of interest are the questions it leaves us with.” — The Future Fire

Thanks to reviewer Lisa Timpf.
