Summary

On the battlefields of the future, death is not the end for a soldier.
The Revenant Program collects badly wounded soldiers broken by war and converts them into unthinking, unfeeling cyborg weapons. Their bodies are immune to pain, their minds impervious to fear and doubt. All controlled by a neural implant called the Imperative.

They are the ideal force for any mission too deadly or too difficult for normal men. A force that answers to the darkest corners of the military.

But when one of the Revenants awakens, he can only remember two things: that he must fight, and a code name…Dead Man.

Who was he before he became a Revenant? What are the officers and scientists controlling the program to do with a soldier that can question the horrific orders he’s given?

The more those controlling the Dead Man learn of who he was, they realize they may have turned a monster into something truly unstoppable. And with every memory recovered, the Imperative drives the Dead Man closer to insanity.

The Weapon: Battleborn is the first in a new series by best-selling military science fiction author Richard Fox, author of the Ember War Saga and Governor: Ascent to Empire.

It's an ember war story! maybe a spoiler?

When I started this book, I thought it was a stand alone book series but boy was I wrong. This is a great little prequel to the ember war series of books, giving back story to a few of the many characters that we meet in the series.

If you're a fan Richard fox's writing then you will love this book.
