THE OCODA CHRONICLES - Book 1: Paladin
2079. Earth has just become someone else's war.
The T-Challa don't want our planet. They want something far more valuable - us. A hundred million people are already dead. Earth's armies are crumbling. And nothing in humanity's arsenal can stop them.
Caleb Ocoda has already lost everything. His family. His reason to fight. When he makes the decision to end it all, an alien intelligence called Paladin intervenes - bonding with him before he can slip away, transforming him into something neither human nor machine truly understands.
Caleb didn't choose to be Earth's last hope. He had no choice at all.
But the bond was never fully tested. The human body has changed in ways the X'ena never anticipated - and now Caleb is dying. If they can't find a way to save him, the most powerful weapon ever created dies with him.
And without Paladin, Earth dies too.
