The military science fiction sequel to his extraordinary Old Man's
War, John Scalzi's The Ghost Brigades is the second in The Old
Man's War series. Who can you trust, if you can't trust yourself?
Three hostile alien races have united against humanity, determined
to halt our expansion into space. The mastermind behind this lethal
alliance is a traitor - Charles Boutin. He was a Colonial Defence
Force scientist, with access to their biggest military secrets. Now
the CDF's only hope is to discover Boutin's plan. Trouble is,
Boutin's dead. As a super-soldier created from Boutin's own DNA,
Jared Dirac may have answers. However, when Dirac fails to access
the scientist's memories, he's transferred to the Ghost Brigades
for training. These elite troops are also cloned from the dead, so
he might fit in. But will Dirac's memory return as the enemy plots
the fate of humankind? And whose side is Dirac really on? 'A mix of
Starship Troopers and Universal Soldier, Ghost evokes awakening,
betrayal, and combat in the best military sci-fi tradition.' -
