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

A Good Dog and a Great Story

Loved this so much! It’s adventurous and action-packed, with lots of interesting characters and excellent character development. Rex is a Good Dog who just wants to please his master and be good. I loved reading from his POV—he’s so genuine. I also appreciate that the story wraps up nicely and doesn’t need a continuation, though I’m still excited to read Bear Head!
Really good.

Funny dialoges between the bio engineerd super animals. What is good/Bad? And why?
Is there something in between friend and foe? Rex and his squad evolve in their journey, growing more aware and sentient. Nice and thrilling Story. One of my very favourite books i've read this year. Highly recommend.
