A bio-engineered dog fights for its life and its right to life. From
the Arthur C. Clark Award-winning author of CHILDREN OF TIME. My name
is Rex. I am a good dog. Rex is also seven foot tall at the shoulder,
bulletproof, bristling with heavy calibre weaponry and his voice
resonates with subsonics especially designed to instil fear. With
Dragon, Honey and Bees, he's part of a Multiform Assault Pack
operating in the lawless anarchy of Campeche, Mexico. A genetically
engineered Bioform, he's a deadly weapon in a dirty war. All he wants
to be is a Good Dog. And to do that he must do exactly what Master
says and Master says he's got to kill a lot of enemies. But who,
exactly, are the enemies? What happens when Master is tried as a war
criminal? What rights does the Geneva Convention grant weapons? Do Rex
and his fellow Bioforms even have a right to exist? And what happens
when Rex slips his leash? 'Detailed and clever worldbuilding...
Tchaikovsky pulls off an impressive feat in making Rex's character
evolution genuinely moving. Readers will be wowed' Publishers Weekly
