    About this ebook

    All humans were created equal

    until we decided to make ourselves... better.

    A millennium after the resulting Extinction Wars nearly drove mankind to the brink of annihilation, the survivors reach out to the stars to gather the lost tribes of men together once again. But in doing so they find that some things are perhaps better off lost.

    Trapped on a hostile world and hunted by mercenaries, a First Contact team must decide just how far they’re willing to go to survive. When the difference between life and death is measured in calories and milliamps, are we all savages at heart?

      The doctors assured me the shrapnel in my leg would do no further harm if they “let sleeping dogs lie,” or at least less harm than trying to take it out would cause. “Hey,” I asked them. “What if it decides to cut its way out all on its own?” My grea
