Why read it?
1 author picked Critical Space as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Greg Rucka is better known for comic books, but he writes awesome novels too.
I borrowed Critical Space from the library years ago, and Drama is a character who has stuck with me throughout my life. In previous books in the series, she was cast as the bad guy, but in this installment, she drags the hero, Atticus Kodiak, over to her world and we find out that it’s not as black-and-white as we were led to believe.
From Elise's list on The best novels with morally grey heroines.
