Description

“A brilliant bastard of a science fiction writer…Definitely vintage Watts…Outstanding, exciting, terrifying.” Cory Doctorow, New York Times bestselling author

How do you stage a mutiny when you’re only awake one day in a million? How do you conspire when your tiny handful of potential allies changes with each job shift? How do you engage an enemy that never sleeps, that sees through your eyes and hears through your ears, and relentlessly, honestly, only wants what’s best for you? Trapped aboard the starship Eriophora, Sunday Ahzmundin is about to discover the components of any successful revolution: conspiracy, code―and unavoidable casualties.

Praise

“A brilliant bastard of a science fiction writer…Definitely vintage Watts…Outstanding, exciting, terrifying.” Cory Doctorow, New York Times bestselling author

“Fast, rich, and cool—Freeze Frame Revolution fascinates!” Greg Bear, New York Times bestselling author

“A delicious morsel of hard science fiction…The setup of the book is irresistible, and the science is high-concept.” Washington Post

“What gives Watts’s tale surprising depth is [the question of] what it means to be human on an endless mission in an uncaring universe.” Chicago Tribune

“As brilliant and enticingly acute as any of [Watts’s] earlier and longer work…Skin-creeping tension, sharply realistic detail, and action moving fast as thought.” Seattle Review of Books

“Short, tight…Contains vast science-fictional speculation…SF fans will love this tale of bizarre future employment and genuine wonder.” Publisher’s Weekly (starred review)

“Watts is not known as an author who shies away from mind-blowing ideas. Case in point: The wonder-packed Freeze-Frame Revolution.” Kirkus Reviews
