Kip Cassino's Supplicant is a dystopian sci-fi thriller. In the 26th century, the world is divided into fiefdoms, with 200 powerful individuals ruling their territories and extending their lives far beyond the rest of humanity. KAX is a twenty-six-year-old supplicant who serves Grand Master Tyl Fontaine of the Nords. But after Fontaine is assassinated by the ruthless cyborg Typhon on Guardian Alois Volpe's orders, KAX suddenly finds herself at the mercy of Typhon's mercenaries. She becomes pregnant and gives birth to a boy named Talos. Typhon declares Talos is his heir. However, KAX and Talos manage to escape his clutches. As the hunt for the mother and son continues, Typhon's relationship with his employers is increasingly strained. Can KAX and her newfound allies find a way to save humanity?
Action-packed from beginning to end, Kip Cassino's gripping narrative catches you off guard with wild plot twists and turns, keeping you hooked all the way through. Supplicant will be a pleasure for any sci-fi fan. The dystopian setting is immersive, and all the characters have unique personality traits. For such a dense plot, Cassino does a masterful job of keeping the narrative moving at a brisk pace. Every chapter is full of surprises, be it a new shocking reveal or breathtaking action sequences that keep you on the edge of your seat. KAX's character evolves a lot throughout the course of the story. It's easy to root for her. I was hoping she would make it out alive by the end. Overall, I highly recommend this book.
