“We are in an endless race to build combat machines, and whichever side builds more—and more capable—machines will doubtlessly maintain its lead for some time. Truly capable robots are extremely expensive to construct, extremely expensive to repair, and extremely easy to destroy.
The human body is one of the most efficient machines on the face of this planet—and in the stars above—and it is highly available. The trick has been to find a sufficiently reliable means for harnessing human bodies to give their actions robotic levels of accuracy, and then to enhance the bodies so they could perform at robotic levels of strength.”
- Dr. Aoi Hinimoto, Lead Author, Command Activated Program Charter, Global Alliance Command
The free world has created a program by which virtually any able-bodied human can be turned into a special operations soldier. Unfortunately, when humanity develops any grand new capability, there are always those who will use it for evil. Now, even those having special needs have been put at risk…
AUTHOR BIO: BENJAMIN GORDON CARD is a former military intelligence agent turned DoD consultant turned CISO and cyber security penetration tester (aka, "gray hat hacker"). His uncle, Orson Scott Card, set an example of how tragedy could become a catalyst for inspiration, and Benjamin's personal experiences with the heights and depths of human potential bleed onto every page of his works.
