Synopsis

ZERO-G is the nonstop sequel to Rob Boffard's Tracer, a brutal, gripping thrill-ride, where the hero moves like lightning and the consequences for failure are deadly.

The clock is ticking down again for Riley Hale.

She may be the newest member of Outer Earth's law enforcement team, but she feels less in control than ever. A twisted doctor bent on revenge is blackmailing her with a deadly threat. If Riley's to survive, she must follow his orders, and break a dangerous prisoner out of jail. To save her own skin, Riley must go against all her beliefs, and break every law that she's just sworn to protect. Riley's mission will get even tougher when all sectors are thrown into lock-down. A lethal virus has begun to spread through Outer Earth, and it seems little can stop it. If Riley doesn't live long enough to help to find a cure, then the last members of the human race will perish along with her.

The future of humanity hangs in the balance. And time is running out.

Goodreads review by Liz on February 15, 2016

Some of you may remember how much I loved Tracer. So actually I was vaguely nervous about reading Zero-G because hey, you love a book then you think “hell, how can that be topped?” and you circle around the next one carefully – no need. No need at ALL. Seriously, trust the writers when they know what......more

Goodreads review by Jeremy on October 04, 2017

I like this book far too much for something that makes me feel this unfit. Zero-G, like all books in the Outer Earth series, is heart-pounding, exhilarating, and moves at a break-neck pace. Sometimes to its own disadvantage; there being so little time to really soak in the world and learn a little mo......more

Goodreads review by blush on January 15, 2019

*2.5 stars The writing is definitely better than that of the first book. The pace is steadier. I realise now why the pace between chapters felt different in the previous book. Through out the series there are a lot of pov changes. And not just between characters. Majority of the povs are in 3rd perso......more

Goodreads review by Dave on February 07, 2016

Regular readers may recall that I was enormously impressed with Tracer, Rob’s first book. Indeed, it made it into my books of the year list for 2015. It was a *huge* amount of fun and when I met with Rob on his signing tour in Leeds (shameless namedrop), he assured me that the follow-up would be tur......more

Goodreads review by Tallianna on September 17, 2017

Viel zu viele Handlungsstränge in zu kurzer Zeit Nachdem Riley Hale die Station Außenerde gerettet hat, wird sie Teil der Sicherheitsleute, kurz „Stomper“ genannt. Aber sie wäre nicht sie selbst, wenn sie Probleme nicht magisch anziehen würde. Nicht nur, dass sie von einem irren Psychopathen erpresst......more


Quotes

"Boffard's story moves lightning fast."—Publisher's Weekly on Zero-G

"Tracer is the literary equivalent of a base jump: fast, exhilarating and unforgettable, and once you start it you can't stop. I loved it."—Sarah Lotz, author of The Three, on Tracer

"Ludicrously fast-paced, with a brilliant sci-fi setting, Tracer is an absolute blast of a read."—David Owen on Tracer

"Reading Tracer is like being on a rocket-propelled roller coaster and trapped in a supersonic pinball machine at one and the same time. The action flies by in a blur and leaves you as breathless and reeling as the protagonists. Riley Hale battles to save the last remnants of humanity from a homicidal maniac and a secretive suicide cult in the claustrophobic, brilliantly evoked world of a crumbling space station where danger lies around every corner. A stunning debut by Rob Boffard that never lets up, from the nerve-jangling beginning to the explosive end."—James Douglas on Tracer

"Readers who prize the rush of an action-packed plot will have fun with this."—Publisher's Weekly on Tracer
