Description
In this breathless and hilarious followup to Windswept, former labor organiser Padma’s worst nightmare comes true: she gets yanked out of early retirement. After buying her favourite rum distillery and settling down, she thought she’d heard the last of her arch nemesis, Evanrute Saarien. But Saarien, fresh out of prison for his misdeeds in Windswept, has just fabricated a new religion, positioning himself as its holy leader. He’s telling his congregation to go on strike, to fight the system. And unfortunately, they’re listening to him.
Now Padma’s summoned by the Union president to help stop this strike from happening. The problem is, she’s out of practice. And, the more she digs, the more she realises this whole strike business is more complicated than the Union president let on…

Advance Praise
“Like a Boss is one of those rare, perfect novels that somehow packs huge ideas into a story that is simultaneously wildly speculative and completely digestible. Like a Boss lives up to its name. A masterwork of big ideas, perfectly executed.”
Ted Kosmatka, author of The Flicker Men
"The Moment I began reading this, I immediately had to put the book down. I was simply too sick with envy at Adam's talent."
- Madeline Ashby, acclaimed author of vN and iD

Stefan F, Reviewer
The second novel in Rakunas's Windswept series.
"Like a Boss" has most of what made the first book in the series an engaging and enjoyable read: the writing is great, the characters are interesting and varied, and the plot is action-packed.
If you're looking for an interesting SF series that doesn't tread over-familiar territory, then I'd recommend this one.
