Pirates: A CyberTank Novel
Ancient war machines awaken to defend an isolated frontier colony from ruthless invaders
- Science Fiction
An outer-rim paradise on the brink of destruction. On the peaceful agricultural world of New Harvest, recent university graduates Nathan, Elena, and Julian expected a quiet future surveying the wilderness. Instead, they stumble upon a secret buried deep beneath the northern mountains: a forgotten military depot holding two millennia of CyberTank development history, including three dormant M5G2 Colossus units. Their life-changing discovery couldn't come at a worse time. A ruthless pirate fleet commanded by a disgraced former officer descends on the undefended world, intent on stripping its resources and enslaving its people. With no military forces to protect them, the young colonists must execute a desperate gamble. To survive, Elena must crack centuries-old firewalls, Julian must organize an army of civilian farmers, and Nathan must risk his mind to master the deadly neural interface of a behemoth war machine. As the sky fills with enemy drop-ships, these young graduates are all that stand between their home and total annihilation. Timothy A Beeler delivers a thrilling military sci-fi epic combining deep mechanical lore with high-octane armored warfare.
