In Memoriam (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781961578005)

A ruthless mega-corporation controlled by a mechanized madman has driven China's working class to the edge of desperation. With their lives crushed under relentless exploitation, the hope of revolution has become their only escape. When a kinetic energy bomb obliterates the heart of the resistance, it leaves millions dead, the city of Xi'an in ruins, and the survivors shattered. The flame of revolution fizzles to a spark.

Only Robert Lilly, a lowly private, refuses to surrender. Born with the ability to talk to machines, Robert devises a plan to outsmart the corporation's forces. With nothing but his wits and a small but loyal squad at his side, he sets out on a perilous mission to dismantle the corporation's most dangerous weapon.

Betrayed by allies, hunted by a merciless cyborg, and haunted by the devastation left in his wake, Robert struggles with the crushing weight of leadership. As the lines between hero and villain blur, Robert must decide how far he's willing to go to bring down an empire bent on destroying his world.

When faced with a choice between saving the future or his own humanity, will Robert become the very thing he set out to destroy?

The Uprising must succeed-but at what price?
