Division Zero Kindle Edition

Most cops get to deal with living criminals, but Agent Kirsten Wren isn’t most cops.

A gifted psionic with a troubled past, she possesses a rare combination of abilities that makes her a powerful weapon against paranormal threats. Adrift in a society that fears people like her, she feels alone in a city of millions.

In 2418, rampant violence and corporate warfare have left no shortage of angry wraiths. Most are little more than fleeting shadows or eerie whispers in the darkness, but every so often, one gathers enough strength to threaten the living.

A series of attacks by androids known as dolls leave the normal police baffled. Unable to explain what made the machines malfunction, they punt the case to Division 0. Kirsten’s investigation into who – or what – is behind the random murders soon makes her a target for corporate assassins.

Despite her past, and the cynical city around her, she clings to the belief that no one is beyond redemption. Alas, the killer is desperate to claim as many innocent souls as possible, and one might just be hers.

AUTHOR BIO:

Originally from South Amboy NJ, Matthew has been creating science fiction and fantasy worlds for most of his reasoning life. Since 1996, he has developed the “Divergent Fates” world in which Division Zero, Virtual Immortality, The Awakened Series, The Harmony Paradox, the Prophet of the Badlands series, and the Daughter of Mars series take place.

His books span adult, young-adult, and middle-grade fiction in multiple genres, predominantly science fiction, cyberpunk, post-apocalyptic, and fantasy.

Matthew is an avid gamer, a recovered WoW addict, developer of two custom tabletop RPG systems, and a fan of anime, British humour, and intellectual science fiction that questions the nature of humanity, reality, life, and what might happen after it.

He is also fond of cats, presently living with two: Loki and Dorian.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing story!

I’ve read a few other books by Matthew Cox and loved them and could kick myself for having not started this series sooner! This is an amazing book and great start to the series! The story takes place in the year 2418 and the world as we now know it, is nothing like it is then! Even the police force which Agent Kirsten Wren is a part of is drastically different. She belongs to Division Zero which investigates paranormal type crimes and is called in more times than not. She is also a psionic which means she has abilities that a normal human doesn’t and can also see ghosts and demons. As this story continues, we learn so much about Kirsten’s past and how she became an agent and what makes her tick which is a lot of compassion and emotion! Her past comes back to haunt her many times while trying to apprehend “suspects” but that is what also makes her the strong and competent woman that she is. I cannot say enough good things about this book and the imagination that this author has. It goes so much deeper than just words on a page. It shows emotions so real that you will cry or at least get tears in your eyes when you read certain parts. Yes…that is the sign of a good book and an amazing author. I highly recommend this book to everyone that loves a truly remarkable book and is looking for something new and different to read.

••• Not for the transphobic, homophobic, or closedminded •••

This series must be read in order. Though this is technically the first book I recommend reading Virtual Immortality first as it is set before this book in the same world and a few of the characters make appearances in here :) The short Into The Beneath can be read before or after this book. I can't wait to read Loose Ends! 

Kirsten had a horrible childhood... Especially after she came into her powers. Her mother abused and starved her for being Devil Spawn just because she could not understand or accept that her daughter was Gifted. This left Kirsten an Atheist who helps ghosts crossover or destroys them if they are too dangerous to leave to Fate. Division Zero is not just her job... It is her family! Between her partner Dorian and her best friend Nicole she gets by. Too bad men are either terrified of her powers ... Or just want to use her for sex! It feels like she will never make a meaningful connection with anyone outside of Division Zero... But anything is possible. Right? Now that Dolls are running amuck all over the city, it is up to her to figure out the cause, and put a stop to it! Is it a Psionic controlling the murderous dolls? Or a ghost possessing them? Or a truly gifted hacker? Who would make dolls kill innocent people? Why these dolls in particular? What is the endgame? Can they stop the killing before the whole city panics? Or will their society fall even farther under martial law? 

***This series is suitable for adult readers who enjoy dystopian futuristic sci-fi with plenty of intrigue set in a post postapocalyptal world where nothing is as it seems and the paranormal vies with advanced science for control of the world :)

Great characters as usual in a fascinating future world. I started with Virtual Immortality and did not realize there was a whole other series set in this sane future. Can’t wait to read the rest of Division Zero series!

An enjoyable read. It was actually kind of interesting once I got started on it. My only problem was the dis-functional world he created as the background. The science and economics behind the wall to wall city get an "F". This story would have been just fine in a more believable venue.

5.0 out of 5 stars From pathetic weakling to shining hero
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2019

Like all of Matt's books this one was a great experience, it starts a bit slow with a somewhat weak and kind of pathetic main character but there is awesome character development that makes her grow into her hero role though it was frustrating at times the resolution was very satisfying. I'll continue the rollercoaster of emotions with book 2 pretty soon.

Standard world of future with powerful corporations and a Cold War vibe. Main character is a psychic who sees ghosts. Whole plot lacks depth and few secondary characters. We have our cop heroine running around chasing ghosts with no partner or team. So unbelievable. Whole world needs filling in.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mind-blowing!
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2014

Agent Kirsten Wren is strong, smart, funny and beautiful. But even in a world full of androids and ghosts, she’s the freak - thanks to her psionic abilities. Still, psionics give her an edge as an agent in Division Zero (think Fringe meets X-Files). Her newest case is one of murders being committed by dolls (human-like androids) in futuristic Seattle. Her investigation leads her through twists and turns full of corporate greed, unhinged cyborgs and sexbot sexcapades. Believe me when I say that this book will keep you up all night!

The sci-fi geek in me relished in the incredibly detailed plot and dedicated worldbuilding, while the writer in me adored the beautiful writing and perfect voice. Not only was it hard to put down, I can’t wait to pick it up again.

5.0 out of 5 stars An original and enthralling novel.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 8, 2014
Verified Purchase
A very well-written and exciting story. Characterisation is very good, with convincing back stories and motivations. Set in a well-constructed future world it is a great mix of police procedural, horror, sci-fi and thriller.
The central concept of the worlds population living in a few huge cities is similar to the "Mega-cities" of Judge Dredd, but the way Matthew has developed the concept is different enough to avoid comparisons and seem fresh and original.
Having the main character possessing strong psychic abilities, without them being overpowering, is a great twist and I can see a long run in the series if Matthew can keep this level of writing going.

Highly recommended!
