Publisher's Summary
Brad Thor meets Avatar in this timely thriller for the drone age, as
award-winning author Christopher Golden spins the troubles of today
into the apocalypse of tomorrow.
After political upheaval, economic collapse, and environmental disaster,
the world has become a hotspot, boiling over into chaos of near apocalyptic
proportions. In this perpetual state of emergency, all that separates
order from anarchy is the military might of a United States, determined
to keep peace among nations waging a free-for-all battle for survival
and supremacy.
But a conflict unlike any before demands an equally unprecedented fighting
force on its front lines. Enter the Remote Infantry Corps: robot soldiers
deployed in war zones around the world, controlled by human operators
thousands of miles from the action. PFC Danny Kelso is one of these
"Tin Men", stationed with his fellow platoon members at a subterranean
base in Germany, steering their cybernetic avatars through combat in
the civil-war-ravaged streets of Syria. Immune to injury and death,
this brave new breed of American warrior has a battlefield edge that's
all but unstoppable - until a flesh-and-blood enemy targets the Tin
Men's high-tech advantage in a dangerously game-changing counter strike.
