REVIEWS OF T. JACKSON KING NOVELS

STAR VIGILANTE
"For a fast-paced adventure with cool tech, choose Star Vigilante. This is the story of three outsiders. Can three outsiders bond together to save Eliana's planet from eco-destruction at the hands of a ruthless mining enterprise?"--Bonnie Gordon, Los Alamos Daily Post

"It has been a long while since I read a (hard) science fiction novel with such scope, complexity, and humanity as this bravura performance by T. Jackson King. I understand, and appreciate this author's resume now...he is not only a fine fellow, but a long-time member of the SFWA, an archeologist, a traditionally published author, a one-time anarchist, and a science fiction writer of the highest caliber!"--Linell Jeppsen, Amazon

THE GAEAN ENCHANTMENT
"King has created characters which are fascinating and complex. . . What stands out for me about King's characters is that, in a world gone animal with chaos–an America full of rape and theft and exploitation–these wayfarers are kind; motivated by something higher just than a love of their own lives or the lives of their families. . . King can write. Plot drives his book so hard that at first you don't notice the talent that steers each well-placed image, word and metaphor.”--Tara Adams, Faith In Ambiguity blog

LITTLE BROTHER'S WORLD
"When I'm turning a friend on to a good writer I've just discovered, I'll often say something like, "Give him ten pages and you'll never be able to put him down." Once in a long while, I'll say, "Give him five pages." It took T. Jackson King exactly one sentence to set his hook so deep in me that I finished LITTLE BROTHER'S WORLD in a single sitting, and I'll be thinking about that vivid world for a long time to come.”--Spider Robinson, Hugo, Nebula and Campbell Award winner

"If you'e sensing a whiff of Andre Norton or Robert A. Heinlein, you're not mistaken . . . The influence is certainly there, but Little Brother's World is no mere imitation of Star Man's Son or Citizen of the Galaxy."--Don Sakers, Analog

RETREAD SHOP
“The writing is sharp, the plotting tight, and the twists ingenious. It would be worth reading, if only for the beautiful delineations of alien races working with and against one another against the background of an interstellar marketplace. The story carries you . . . with a verve and vigor that bodes well for future stories by this author. Recommended.”--Science Fiction Review

“A very pleasant tour through the author's inventive mind, and an above average story as well.”--Science Fiction Chronicle

“Fun, with lots of outrageously weird aliens.”--Locus

ANCESTOR'S WORLD
“T. Jackson King is a professional archaeologist and he uses that to great advantage in Ancestor’s World. I was just as fascinated by the details of the archaeology procedures as I was by the unfolding of the plot . . . The novel opens with the discovery of artifacts from the lost colony of the Mizari in a tomb of an ancient Na-Dina emperor. This is a discovery that the modernist faction of the Na-Dina do not want getting out, and some of them will do anything to keep it under wraps. What follows is a tightly plotted, suspenseful novel.”--Absolute Magnitude magazine
