The Second Resurrection of Jack Selkirk (The Dragon's Bidding #2.5)

2021 | Romance | Science Fiction/Fantasy

As an embezzler, Jack Selkirk had been a failure. That had gotten him murdered, mind ripped, and resurrected as the assassin Cypher. That didn't go so well either, leaving him as little more than a scrap of digital rubbish drifting through the datasphere. Now he's been given another chance to prove his worth and save the only people who ever gave a damn about him.

Can Jack manage to not screw this one up too?

Loved it!

Having not read the first two books I wasn't sure what to expect. Some of the words threw me a touch but that's what quality fiction can do to you.

I really like Jack, he's sweet, funny and fiercely loyal and protective of the people he cares about......which is good going for a dead guy travelling in the datasphere!

A decent afternoon read that's well worth the timeout from the hectic real world.
    I would highly recommend reading the preceding books though, as for sure they'll be a veritable wealth of brilliantness waiting to be discovered.

wonderful descriptions of inside cyberspace!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This is book 2.5 in the Dragon’s Bidding series, and it could probably be read as a stand-alone, but I would recommend you read books one and two before this one.

Jack has been banished into cyberspace for his crimes against Wolf in book 2. He is filtering bits and pieces of information, passing on the bits that are helping his mum build a nest egg that he wasn’t able to. While doing that, he comes across some information that threatens his existence, even in cyberspace. He just needs Wolf and Fitz to believe him.

I enjoyed this so much MORE than book 2, I really did!

Yes, it’s very technical again, but while Cypher is about the augmentations and things, THIS book is about Jack, and his place in cyberspace. And that place is so beautifully described, it really is. The data streams are different colours. There are guard dogs in those streams, and you gotta be careful of them. Jack dips in and out of places so fast, they don’t get a chance to catch him, though.

Finding the assassination plot means Jack has to think fast, and he HAS to get Wolf to believe him. While Jack can fix things, he needs Wolf’s codes. And that means Wolf has to play nice with Jack. Fitz ain’t best pleased about that, though! Because that means Wolf has to enter cyberspace, and the risks are much greater to Wolf than they are to Jack, since Wolf doesn’t know how to get by.

The bugs from books one and two rear their ugly heads, again, much to Wolf’s dread.

The line of the book is this though: Jack visits me and plays his rotten roll! Oh that made me chuckle. I’ll let you read to get the full story though!

Jack gets a second chance here, and I wonder what will become of him in future books. Great reading, much MUCH better than book 2.
