If you liked Star Trek Into Darkness, you’ll like Dave Bara’s IMPULSE. - Jack Campbell, author of the New York Times bestselling Lost Fleet series
Totally convincing space navy . . . check! Perfectly realized characters complete with depth and heroism . . . check! Plus a fascinating story with an Ahab of a captain determined to complete his mission, and a fledgling lieutenant who comes into his own in the midst of interstellar conflict. Oh yeah: exploding spaceships . . . double check! - Tony Daniel, bestselling author of Guardian of Night
IMPULSE is fun, fast, and proper science fiction. Where the stakes are big, and things matter because the characters matter. I enjoyed the hell out of this. Impulse should be an impulse buy. - Simon R. Green, bestselling author of the Deathstalker series
This first in the series promises some epic dust-ups - John Wyatt, The Sun
Impulse shows what J. J. Abrams could have done with Into Darkness if he was less obsessed with flashy effects and more interested in substantial storytelling - Starburst
In short, Impulse is a winner for me. - Rob H. Bedford, SFFWorld.com
