The Fight Back Home

By SFC Adam Koisor

A surreal animal war story full of heart, humor, and hidden battles. Echo is a deaf, black-and-white house cat and the product of a military experiment no one remembers. While his human serves away with the military, Echo watches over the backyard -- a quiet realm of chickens, sunlight, and a dog who wears a tinfoil hat and believes birds work for the government. But something stirs beneath the soil. When strange symbols begin appearing, animals vanish, and the rabbits organize, Echo is forced into a secret war he thought was long buried. Alongside an unforgettable cast -- including Betsy the conspiracy-loving dog, Two Guns the war-hardened rooster, Mauru the attic-bound veteran, Mr. Winks the one-eyed alley cat, and Ricky the raccoon with a backpack full of gadgets -- Echo must confront the Rootmind: an ancient worm mutated by toxic runoff and powered by memory itself. Told in a blend of dark comedy, heartfelt loyalty, and backyard epic, The Fight Back Home is a tale of survival, sacrifice, and what it means to protect your home when no one else knows there's a war. Because sometimes, the fight doesn't wait for you to return. Sometimes... it begins the moment you're gone.
