About the Book

The year is 2214, and disheartened with the knowledge that after a hundred years of peace, war may again be declared, Senator Jonathan Q. Tash of New Mexico, Namericorp, travels incognito to Mars, hoping to quell the unrest. But there’s not a whole lot one man can do. He joins up with the MARC, the Martian Armed Resistance Corps, and is given a small team of the youngest roughnecks he had ever seen, where he becomes a hunter-gatherer of federal information, also known as a spy. Jon is injured during an escape when he fell down a concrete stairwell and is rushed to his ship, the Hyperion Way, by a rather remarkable, very futuristic entity known as Hype, who can do almost anything. Laid up with a concussion, he has no idea what is going on with the war, but with a few thousand troops against the combined multimillion-soldier might of the planet Earth, it ain’t good.
