In Velocity Weapon, did you enjoy ...

... a clear, high-stakes mission driving the plot forward?

Ninefox Gambit by Yoon Ha Lee

If you loved the relentless drive and high-stakes objectives that propelled Sanda through the galaxy in Velocity Weapon, you'll be thoroughly gripped by Ninefox Gambit. Here, Captain Kel Cheris must recapture a fortress taken by heretics, aided—contentiously—by the ghost of the infamous tactician Shuos Jedao. The blend of military strategy, desperate gambits, and characters risking everything for their goals will keep you turning pages late into the night.

... a cast of multiple main characters whose stories intertwine?

Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey

Did the shifting perspectives and ensemble of characters in Velocity Weapon hook you? Then you’ll be riveted by Leviathan Wakes. It introduces you to a vivid array of protagonists—Holden, Miller, Naomi, Amos—each with their own arcs and motivations, drawn together by a mysterious alien threat and political upheaval. The group dynamic and interplay of personalities deliver a richly layered, character-driven space adventure.

... elaborate, immersive worldbuilding with richly detailed societies?

A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine

If you were fascinated by the intricate political systems and the lived-in feel of the worlds in Velocity Weapon, A Memory Called Empire will sweep you away. Ambassador Mahit Dzmare must navigate the labyrinthine culture and history of the Teixcalaanli Empire, with every page immersing you in language, ritual, and the subtle currents of power. The depth of setting and cultural nuance is as engrossing as O’Keefe’s universe.

... morally complex protagonists grappling with ambiguous choices?

Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie

If you were drawn to the shades-of-gray decisions made by Sanda and Biran in Velocity Weapon, you'll find Ancillary Justice equally compelling. Breq, a former warship AI inhabiting a human body, navigates the ethical minefields of revenge, loyalty, and justice in the sprawling Radch empire. The novel challenges your sympathies and keeps you guessing about what the right choice really is.

... fast-paced, action-driven storytelling filled with twists and momentum?

Revenger by Alastair Reynolds

If you loved the rapid pace, tense escapes, and constant surprises that kept you glued to Velocity Weapon, Revenger will deliver that same adrenaline rush. Join Adrana and Arafura as they venture into a dangerous universe of space pirates, ancient treasures, and deadly betrayals. The breakneck action and unpredictable plot will thrill you from the very first page.
