Get your copy of Viral now…
The other day, someone asked me which of my books was my favorite. That’s a little like asking a parent to pick their favorite child, but if you put a gun to my head, I’d probably say Viral. It was important for me to tell Sam’s story because I wanted to share what veterans experience when they go to – and also come back from – war. And in the same way that classic military sci fi books like Ender’s Game, Old Man’s War, and The Forever War explored the future of combat, I thought it would be really interesting to see what happens when you turn war into a spectator sport, or put YouTube celebrities on the battlefield. Anyway, it was a lot of fun to write, and I hope you’ll enjoy it.
As usual, I’m launching at the low, low price of 99c so as many of my fans as possible can grab a copy on the cheap, but the discount will only last a little while, so go grab your copy now:
“In my first battle, I made fourteen thousand dollars in five minutes.”
On a remote planet, an autonomous scout makes first contact with extraterrestrial life. Without warning, the alien attacks, ripping the drone to shreds. Humanity is at war.
Back on Earth, Sam is just another jobless graduate, drifting aimlessly while she lives off of the government’s monthly stipend. When war breaks out with the aliens, she sees a way out of her life of boredom: she signs up to be a “deathstreamer,” a new breed of mercenary chasing fame and fortune by streaming combat footage from the front lines. If she can go viral, wealth and celebrity are within Sam’s grasp. But she’ll need to survive long enough to enjoy it.
Thanks for reading!
