Description
Twenty years ago, The System arrived and used their overwhelming technological power to take over Earth and wipe out every bit of culture and art that they could burn. Tentacled bureaucrats with starships, particle beam weapons, and a standard process for bringing new worlds into their civilization, they have never encountered a species like Humans before, or powder-fired weapons that survive the electrical shutdown that is the first stage of their standard occupation playbook. The "squids" have never tried to assimilate a species capable of rage, terrorism, underground resistance – or love.
They’ve never heard of God, either. But they're learning.
Now, the Human resistance prepares to set in motion their grand plot, led by a brain-damaged genius and his band of family and friends, including his jaded warrior wife, spies, assassins, and commandos barely in their teens. With little more on their side than planning, belief, and assault rifles, fighting both The System’s occupiers and their violently repressive Human Security collaborators, they must leverage the unique talents of our species to free their world from a government that controls thousands of planets.
And they need to do it now, just as these powerful but curiously naïve aliens are encountering resistance from within their own society. A growing number of The System’s citizens have come to the conclusion that the occupation of the Holy Planet, Earth, was morally wrong. A sin.
Meanwhile, on a remote world at the far edge of the galaxy, enslaved and experimented on by the slit-eyed Masters that have been abducting men and women off of Earth for almost a century, an isolated population of Humans is being turned into a deadly weapon to fight the final battle in a war that has raged across the galaxy for more than fifteen million years, killing billions.
The most aggressive, creative, technologically adept species in galactic history is about to explode out into space.
Who will control mankind?
