Bear Head (Dogs of War Book 2)

Product Information

Adrian Tchaikovsky’s latest novel, Bear Head, follows the story of Jimmy who has allowed his modified brain to be rented out for an illegal data dump. However, he soon finds out that said data is, in fact, the cloned intelligence of a political refugee called Honey… who is a bear. Elms, Alan C. (July–September 1977).

Washington, D.C.: Arctic Studies Center. p.112. ISBN 978-1-56098-661-4. Tchaikovsky keeps up a brisk pace by rotating through these viewpoints, each with its own distinct voice and representing unique angles and perspectives on the narrative, between them covering slightly different time periods which converge over the course of the book. Right from the off it’s interesting to see the realities of life on Mars through Jimmy’s (biomodded) eyes, but as the main thrust of the plot is gradually revealed it becomes evident just how cleverly this world and the developing narrative are tied together. Life is tough for all of the POV characters here, but Stringer in particular has it bad despite the veneer of glamour and power. It’s worth noting that there are a couple of scenes that amount to sexual assault, which are uncomfortable to read to say the least, and while we mostly only see Thompson through Stringer’s eyes, he proves to be a genuinely disturbing antagonist. a b c d e f g h i j k Anon (2010).

The Bears Project – Information, reports and images of European brown bears and other living species A Bearhead is a piece of low level headgear that is obtained after killing The Kendal in the Mountain Daughter quest. Bears have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur; they have also been used for bear-baiting and other forms of entertainment, such as being made to dance. With their powerful physical presence, they play a prominent role in the arts, mythology, and other cultural aspects of various human societies. In modern times, bears have come under pressure through encroachment on their habitats and illegal trade in bear parts, including the Asian bile bear market. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered, and even least concern species, such as the brown bear, are at risk of extirpation in certain countries. The poaching and international trade of these most threatened populations are prohibited, but still ongoing. Bacon, Heather (12 May 2008). "Implications of bear bile farming". Vet Times.
