Mirov FAQ

Mirov is a fast-paced science fiction action novel about Anastasia Mirov, a genetically enhanced government assassin for Unidom who is betrayed, exiled to Mars, and forced into a three-way war between an authoritarian Earth government, rebel forces, and a powerful alien species, all fighting over what she loves most. As Mirov is pushed to her limits, she turns from weapon to wild card, using advanced tech, hacking skills, and brutal combat to decide who, if anyone, deserves her loyalty—and how far she will go to protect her last remaining hope.

In the Mirov series, you can expect a thrilling sci-fi adventure packed with military action, space opera drama, and techno-thriller excitement. If you love high-stakes battles, futuristic tech, and complex characters in morally gray situations, this series is perfect for you!

Mirov is written for adults and mature teen readers who are comfortable with graphic violence, intense battle scenes, and emotionally heavy subject matter. It is best suited for readers who enjoy darker, high-intensity science fiction rather than light or comedic space stories

Unidom is a powerful governing entity created to protect humanity from alien threats, controlling Earth, colonies such as Mars, and orbital space stations. Over time, its reach and methods become increasingly oppressive, sparking resistance movements and putting it at the center of the novel’s political and moral conflict

The book includes graphic battle scenes and “not for the faint of heart” violence, appealing to readers who enjoy gritty, high-energy sci-fi rather than softer space opera.

No, the cover of Mirov isn't inspired by Kate Beckinsale. While I think she's amazing, Anastasia Mirov's look is entirely original. For more details, check out: https://www.mirov.com/post/what-inspired-the-title-and-character-mirov

No. Her last name is Mirov, in the Americanized version of the name. This is clear in the book. Just search for women with the last name Mirov, and there are tons out there. This is not an error or an oversight but an intentional use of the surname.

I chose a female lead for Mirov because it felt right for the story. If you’re curious about my decision and want to know more, check out: https://www.mirov.com/post/is-mirov-a-mary-sue

I would LOVE to make Mirov into an epic film or streaming series. I did some things within the novel to increase its adaptability for when the time comes. Making it into a film is my dream, but there is nothing on the horizon to get it on film yet.

While I'm a huge fan of Lara Croft and loved the original game on PS1 and the movies, the cover of Mirov isn't based on her. Mirov's look and image are entirely unique.

Yes. I had no desire to ask a publishing house for permission to be an artist. I didn't even try to get a publishing deal. Amazon KDP is a godsend for artists. I was mentored by a traditionally published author and she also served as my editor. Her resume is impeccable.​

Yes, but you're going to have to pay close attention to both books to figure out how. - David C. Hoke
