"Wishing for once her employers could have let her stay dead,
Special Operative Angel Leonard is once again revived to fight in a
future where technology eliminates freedom of thought, blends real
and virtual; where her own mind is her worst enemy." Primed is an
innovative and insightful, hard science-fiction thriller
(cyberpunk), set in the not-too-distant future. Instantaneous space
transit technology has brought humanity to the brink of a massive
colonial expansion across the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. The
United Nations of Earth declared martial law, justifying
unprecedented violations of privacy and human rights throughout the
colonies to suppress the armed insurgency of the Orion Arm
Conglomerate for Independence, a group of trans-global corporations
vying for freedom from UNE's proscriptive laws and unfair colonial
taxation. Hopelessly outnumbered, the O.A.C.I. turns to outlawed
human cloning and memory transfer technology to revive fallen
operatives in their private army. Fiercely loyal to the cause,
fearless of death, O.A.C.I.'s veterans return from their graves
time and time again, their lifetimes of combat experience and
skills restored, carrying out a series of tactical strikes to
thwart UNE's overstretched attempt to consolidate power.
