Skye City: The Transhuman Revolution

By R.D. Hale

'My name is Leo Jardine. I am an orphan from the slums of Medio city who chose military life as a way to escape extreme poverty. Some choice that turned out to be. I always knew our leaders were bastards, but when San Teria invaded our nation's great rival Nyberu, and the wider world, I discovered just how ruthless they really are.'The so-called Great War has been raging for nearly two years. It took about a week for me to lose count of the soldiers and civilians killed before my eyes. When I was stationed on the STS Cheriton, I thought it would make a nice break from the dodging of bullets and the sight of corpses. If only military life was that simple.'The Transhuman Revolution is a prequel to book one in the award-winning Skye City series. It is set sixteen years before events in The Rise of an Orphan in the land of Nusantara where cybernetic augmentations are common-place. Technological advances offer a stark contrast to the living conditions of the impoverished masses who must upgrade to improve their chances of survival. The Great War has been raging for two years and Nusantara is struggling to maintain its neutral status, given the threat it faces. Disaffected Anatolian soldiers are going AWOL, united by their hatred for the ruling San Teria party whose theocracy triggered nuclear Armageddon. Treason becomes the only option because the future of humanity is hanging by a thread. And thus The Rebellion is born.
