Thank you for the recommendation. Growing up I was a big fan of John Brosnan's trilogy Sky Lords - post apocalyptic / genetic wars sci-fi with zepellins - what is there not to like :).

Seeing this is by Brosnan as well means it's an instant buy for me.

I know Brosnan because my initial meeting with hard sci-fi was by reading a Polish magazine about sci-fi which printed one of his stories. Good times.

He was a great author and I'm sad that he will not write any more stories .. he is unfortunately dead.

I found his books (which IMO are not that famous) because our local library had them. Otherwise I don't think I would have stumbled upon it.

Same applies to Walter Jon Williams and his Hardwired which was one of my early favorites. I was amazed to find out later that this book is one of inspirations for Cyberpunk tabletop games and Cyberpunk 2077.
