Attack Path

The Ungovernable #9

by R.M. Olson

Their old enemy is back, and she’s more dangerous than they ever imagined.

Jez and the crew of the Ungovernable are injured, exhausted, and out of time. Their long-time nemesis, Evka, has finally perfected the weapon the crew has been desperately fighting to stop for months—a protocol that will allow her to track down and kill anyone in the system with the click of a button. And the lives of the crew, and of everyone they love, are on the line.

With their backs to the wall and no more tokens up their sleeves, they’ll need every bit of skill and ingenuity they possess, the help of old allies and new friends, and a hell of a lot of luck if they want to to stop Evka—or even if they just want to make it out alive.

Attack Path is the ninth book and the thrilling final instalment in R.M. Olson’s science fiction space opera series The Ungovernable. With a crazy, close-knit crew, plenty of humour, and loads of action, Firefly meets Ocean’s Eleven in this fast-paced, kick-ass, wickedly fun series.

About the author

R.M. Olson writes queer, feel-good space opera, featuring diverse casts, found families, and loads of action. R.M. has ridden the Trans Siberian railway, jumped off the highest bungee jump in the world, gone cage-diving with great white sharks, faced down a charging buffalo bull, and knows how to milk a goat. Currently they reside in Alberta, Canada with their four children, three cats, and a dog the size of a small bear. R.M. goes hiking and skiing more often than they probably have time for, eats more chocolate than is probably good for them, and reads more books than is probably prudent.

Grand adventure with quirky LGBT+ & straight characters

Highly recommended- action, drama, suspense, and just some bad-ass gals and guys. Rich relationships that either come together or reconnect through trials.

Loved this series

I was drawn in from the very first book, this was a fantastic story and I'm sad it's the end.
Read this series you won't regret it.

I really liked the whole series. Fast past action, insurmountable odds, a crew of outcasts bringing a range of skills to bear against evil plots. Definitely reminiscent of Star Wars and Firefly.

Let me just say I’m glad Masha is back with the crew. There’s not much trust there, but she’s trying. And she didn’t betray them, gave up on her plans for them. That means a LOT. At least to me, it does.
The whole book is basically a mind game between the crew and Evka. Why does she have to be so fiendishly intelligent? Fuck.
I must say that Zhenia is growing on me. Which is good.
I’m both sad and glad the series is over. Sad because I love this crew and I don’t want to say goodbye, and glad because not sure my heart could take any more.
Need a hot minute before I can pick up another book, though.
R.M. Olson is now my favouritest author and I will read their laundry list at this point.
