    About this ebook

    Amid the ruin, heroes emerge from the unlikeliest places...
    The Anniversary Day bombings devastated the Moon, killing thousands. While survivors search for missing loved ones and the rich and powerful set plans in motion to capitalize on the Moon’s misfortune, one ruthless man vows to uncover those responsible for the attacks on the Moon.
    Luc Deshin, the most feared man in Armstrong, knows all too well the bombings could have killed the wife and son he loves more than life itself. To protect his family, Deshin immerses himself in a criminal network he fought long and hard to leave behind.
    Deshin doesn’t scare easily, but what he finds in the black market underbelly of the Moon will chill him to the bone.

    “Fans of Rusch’s Retrieval Artist universe will enjoy the expansion of the Anniversary Day story, with new characters providing more perspectives on its signature events, while newcomers will get a good introduction to the series.”
    —Publishers Weekly on A Murder of Clones

    “Filled with plenty of action, a deep cast and an intense philosophical ethical debate re what a human is; the third Retrieval Artist Universe: The Anniversary Day saga is a fantastic thriller as the audience obtains new perspectives re the pivotal tragedy. Readers do not have to wait eight years for all the books to be released. Instead of an annual publication, this excellent science fiction series is on a monthly schedule; having started last November and December with Anniversary Day and Blowback respectively, and Search and Recovery to follow in February.”
    —Alternative Worlds II on A Murder of Clones

    “Anniversary Day is an edge-of-the-seat thriller
    that will keep you turning pages late into the night
    and it’s also really good science fiction. What’s not to like?”
    —Analog on Anniversary Day

    “Rusch offers up a well-told mystery with interesting characters and a complex, riveting storyline that includes a healthy dose of suspense, all building toward an ending that may not be what it appears.”
    —RT Book Reviews on Blowback

      This was another good installment of the series. I didn't realize when I'd read the summary, I didn't realize that this was going to delve so deeply into Miles' personal life (okay, I didn't realize Rhonda and her daughter were connected to him at all). Once I got into the story and realized it, I really enjoyed it. Granted Miles doesn't actually get to Calisto until the last quarter and he never has a scene with Rhonda (boy was I pining for one after all the revelations) but the call back to their history was so well done that I can't really complain. Points also go to Aleyd possibly rivalling Wagner, Stuart & Xendor for most cravenly opportunistic and cynical employer. Unlike the Disty in the last book, I didn't feel I got to know the Geyonesse very well. Still, I liked the look in and could see their grievance where their progeny were concerned.

      No Noelle here and yes, I missed her but again, there was so much else going on that I can't ultimately call that a flaw in the book. Definitely recommended and I'm already on to the next one. I will miss this series when I've finished it.

      Easy to read.
    • 4/5
      Firstly - this is not a standalone book. If you read this without reading the predecessors, it won't make any sense. I liked this more than the last book, but not as much as the first few. Rusch had a way of portraying aliens who really felt alien, not like humans in costume. And when her later books started focusing more on local politics/dynamics, they became less engaging. However the character of Miles does grow more interesting ever book. So while this book has very few aliens, it is more exciting because it brings us in contact with Mile's past in a totally unexpected way. I read it in one day and am curious to see what happens in the next book, so the series feels back on track for me.
    • 4/5
      This book really shakes up the series, going back to Miles's past and dealing with his ex wife and murdered child. I look forward to the changes this will make in his life.
    • 3/5
      Barely a book but interesting and an essential part of the story. We are still only seeing hints of the big picture and it is frustrating at times. However, on to the next volume of the saga!
