ESPionage: Regime Change

When the Russians start an undeclared war to bring down the West with assassinations and disinformation attacks, the CIA reactivates a psychic agent from its old Project Stargate to fight off the attacks. Together with agents who once worked for Russia, France, and Mexico-plus a couple of youngsters-he brings the secret war to a blazing conclusion!

Easton and Wu's novel is a great example of the subgenre I call "sci-spy," the fusion of present-day science fiction and modern spy adventure, but it's more than that. It's also about an exotic form of espionage that (if certain sources are to be believed) is more actual than you might expect. This is fiction, yes, but it's rooted in some very strange and (possibly) very real things. - Allen Steele

A surreal mix of Jon Ronson's The Men Who Stare at Goats, Peter Benchley's Q Clearance, Frank Wu's knack for the surreal and Tom Easton's touch for weird science, ESPionage: Regime Change is a DC thriller unlike any other. -- Analog

A sublime, diverting hybrid-genre tale with chic supernatural powers and series potential. - Kirkus Reviews
