Hydra’s Wake
Synopsis:
There’s a blimp pilot, Rogue Whip, that crashes his ship and he’s mistaken for a spy with the same name. But then he sees a giant hydra and he’s surprised by it but not really. He quickly rescues a fair maiden but he doesn’t take advantage of her and we should all be grateful to him that he could control himself. The bad guys appear and they aren’t surprised by the giant hydra until they are. Then aliens show up and…I don’t know, other stuff happens I guess.

Review
There is zero explanation of what is actually going on in this book. I can’t tell if people are on another planet or just a different part. Hydras seem to be known to exist but no one has any clue what’s going on with them. Then alien AI shows up randomly. The main character has the same name, a stupid one at that – Rogue Whip, and the bad guys just can’t figure it out. He goes from attempting not to take liberties with an injured, unconscious woman but he also tricks some of the bad guys by claiming he’s just a hallucination.
The one good thing to say about this book is that the cover is pretty cool.
