The Story
The Sanskrit word goptri means "military governor, ruler, or protector." It can also be translated as "secret" or "hidden." Both meanings work in Bill McCormick's latest trilogy. The original Goptri in the series is named Manish. His rise to power begins when an enemy ambassador shoots his wife, Arti.
Spoiler alert: she lives.
Manish becomes a very public leader, but his office is responsible for one of the most secret species in the world, one that contains the memories of the most violent human who ever lived. Discovery of their existence could start a civil war.
All of this is merely the beginning of a galaxy-spanning tale of intrigue, betrayal, and bloody retribution.
Don't miss out.
REVIEWSThis world is our world and not. It is our future, and not. When multiple nuclear missiles can rightly be used as an example of subtle persuasion it becomes a testament to the deep, and twisted, humor that permeates this series. The fact that a gay wedding is the capstone for a bloody revolution is a perfect example of how dichotomies constantly intertwine to tie every story thread together. All in all, this is world building, and story telling, at its finest.

Essentially book number four in the Brittle Riders Trilogy, Goptri (Kittab Ek) manages to slam the reader into a shaky seat and fling them off a ledge. While the Brittle Riders gave you some, if not many, familiar concepts to grab onto, Goptri embraces this alien new world, with all its tentacles and lore, and demands you either accept it or go home. By the time you get to the first assassination you'll know it's worth sticking around. When you find yourself enjoying a snack of wine and cheese with three eyed snipers, you'll realize the mirror McCormick's holding up is reflecting humanity's darkest heart and it's simplest joys all blended together. This isn't so much a continuation of The Brittle Riders as a menacingly gleeful reimagining. I can't wait to read the fifth book in this weird trilogy.

No matter how much you'll want to you can never look away from the mirror McCormick sticks in front of your mind.

(McCormick's) always been LGBTQIA+ friendly, but this subtly raises the bar and I, for one, am thrilled.
