The Iron Children

"The Iron Children is a compelling SF war story but with unique worlds, characters and view of war to make it feel a refreshing take on a familiar subject. Definitely an author I will keep an eye out for more work from. Highly recommended!"

Run Along the Shelves

"Such plot as there is moves along at a nice clip, driven on one hand by natural calamity and on the other by the game of cat and mouse between the soldiers and the enemy hiding within their ranks. The work is certainly entertaining enough that I will be keeping an eye out for more Fraimow works."

James Nicoll Reviews

"This novella is about the foot soldiers. About the unit. About losing those around you. About what they had to give up (voluntarily or otherwise) to become a Dedicate."

A Dance With Books

"THE IRON CHILDREN is a sci-fi novella about the morals and consequences of making people into soldiers. [...] I really liked the murky nature of the final choices made."

Sifa Elizabeth Reads

"Perfect for fans of Murderbot and Becky Chambers."

Zen Cho, Hugo-award winning author of BLACK WATER SISTER

"It grabs you and doesn't let go."

Michael Mammay, award winning author of the Planetside Series

"A compulsively readable dish of tension and emotion."

Freya Marske, author of A MARVELLOUS LIGHT and A RESTLESS TRUTH

"Come for the clockwork battle nuns and fascinating worldbuilding, say for a profound, moving conclusion that goes straight for the soul."

Ren Hutchings, author of UNDER FORTUNATE STARS
