James’s seventeen prior novels prove he has studied his craft, and it shows: in the pacing, in the refusal to let anyone win cheaply, and in a love story that doubles as a security breach. Jax Forge and Tess Fidess are the most persuasive pair of revolutionaries in recent fiction. Someone should option this before the sequel arrives. \u003cb\u003e– Dwayne Garner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSeeley James sets his revolution where revolutions are not supposed to start: Davenport, Iowa, a river town where a shipment of medicine has gone missing and the government’s answer to questions is a hanging, broadcast live. Chicago, in James’s 2065, is the posting every secret policeman wants. That detail stings on purpose. Iron Spark is a Midwestern book: unshowy, exact about work and weather, stingy with glory. Its smuggler and its deputy governor fall in love the way Midwesterners do, carefully and too late. The violence, when it comes, is earned. So is the hope, what little James allows. \u003cb\u003e–Julian Wood\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seeley James","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67690436919478,"sku":"501-Iron Spark","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0466\/1782\/1334\/files\/501-IronSparkSword-Hammerv02.jpg?v=1792445946"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0466\/1782\/1334\/collections\/501-IronSparkSword-Hammerv02.jpg?v=1792446194","url":"https:\/\/shop.seeleyjames.com\/collections\/iron-spark-trilogy.oembed","provider":"seeleyjames","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
