About this ebook
A young commando questions the purpose of his powers in a world where war is the ultimate reality show . . .
In the corp-state of Electromedia, no star shines brighter than that of Mark Leit, a young man destined to become possibly the greatest Psy-Comm of all time. But a tragedy from his past, an unexpected encounter with the enemy, and a desperate desire for redemption will cause Mark to abandon everything his life has stood for. In the eyes of Mark’s partner and best friend, David—a Psy-Comm who is unquestioningly loyal to the corporation—it will be the ultimate act of betrayal . . .
“Moves at a brisk pace.” —Publishers Weekly
“An ambitious beginning to a new series . . . The story takes place in the future—a time when wars are fought not for territory, power, or greed, but for mere entertainment . . . .Mark Leit, a young commando, is one of the heroes of the televised war; he is a stereotypical gung-ho soldier at the start of the book, but he takes on real dimension when a reminder from his past makes him begin to question why he’s fighting. The art is lively, reminiscent of old GI Joe comics, and captures emotion well; the story is full of battle scenes.” —School Library Journal
