“Masterfully executed...Advent Blue is a book rich in atmosphere, dialogue, moral complexity and almost hypnotic precision. It’s unforgettable, especially due to its shocking ending. Readers who enjoy character driven thrillers will find much to savor here.” Feathered Quill Reviews
“The writing style is sharp, wildly intelligent, and 100% immersive, and I’m excited for anything the author puts out next. Very highly recommended.” Asher Syed, for Readers’ Favorite
“Advent Blue is a thought provoking thriller that touches upon some relevant social issues. But the author also makes sure the plot is engaging and completely unpredictable. You never what’s going to happen next. It’s a psychological/sci-fi noir with twists and turns galore.” Pikasho Deka, for Readers’ Favorite
“I was drawn into the story and its mystery and suspense very intensely. It was interesting how the suspense was built, and overall, the writing is brilliant. I would highly recommend Advent Blue to lovers of classic science fiction.” Paul Zietsman, for Readers’ Favorite
“What a breathtaking read! Favorably reminiscent of Dave Eggers’ The Circle, Roland Allnach’s Advent Blue is more powerful with its vast perspective and abundant food for thought in its portrayal of a multitude of social issues. Themes abound..I highly recommend this brilliant story to sci-fi and psychological techno-thriller fans.” Olga Markova, for Readers’ Favorite
“This is an addictive, thrilling read...It touches upon social issues relevant to today including the manipulation of society through social media, and AI as well as corporate greed and how it affects our daily lives. Poignant and thought-provoking. To say it was a page turner would be the understatement of the century.” Alyssa Avina, for Pacific Book Review

“With Advent Blue, Roland Allnach delivers an exciting dystopian thriller that speaks to some of our most pressing concerns, especially those that exist at the nexus of technology and human evolution...Advent Blue operates less as a conventional thriller and more as a philosophical exercise in determinism, asking whether knowledge of consequence liberates or traps the individual who possesses it.” Paul Knobloch, for Reader Views
