Will I love Hell Divers?

Nick should be considered royalty when it comes to the post-apocalypse. He has numerous series with vastly different settings, but all of them are a masterclass in characterisation and story craft. His books draw me in with slick action and characters I care about from the get-go. He tackles the real issues without rubbing it in the reader’s face, and his work makes you question what you would do if the world went sideways.

I was lucky enough to meet this author before he took off, and I have an ARC copy of this book. Back then it was supposed to only be a trilogy, but now he’s up to 8 books in the series. And I can imagine that’s because this world was so fun to write that he couldn’t stop building. If you want post-apocalyptic science fiction, this is certainly that. Unlike a lot from that genre, this setting leaves humanity no choice but to leave the planet’s surface altogether. That alone leads to some really unique world-building. And once you go… show more.
