Cyborg Assassin 1 (Cyborg Assassin Book 1)

Description

Plan8’s Interstellar Military fights for what’s right, yet it’s unaware of a corrupt division on Planet Nerthus. The perpetrators are turning orphans into killing machines, and a school girl called Oshun is bribed to fight in a war on another planet.

When an unforeseen catastrophe befalls her space vessel, she discovers her hopes are based on lies. Oshun should be happy that a space freighter will take her home. But she doesn’t want to return because her mum’s dead, and she has no one else. Oshun’s a cyborg now. Through virtual reality training during cryosleep, she witnessed atrocities on that red-sun world. Will she be forced to return to an empty home, or will she find a way to hide and then fight against injustice?

Just when she’s ready to fight the war, the Interstellar Military agrees to join the Space Marines on that red-sun world, but the corrupt division knows that child soldiers are illegal, so tell her she must return home. Home is the last place she wants to go. What can she do?

Frankie and his pet sparikat don’t know what a decent meal is until a terrorist takes them from their slum and nurtures them in his communist base. But Frankie knows that killing innocents is wrong. Although the terrorist is like a big brother, Frankie must betray him to rescue the victims of war. He’s got the right gun, he possesses a hoverboard. But does he have the guts to kill the bad guys?
