Awakening to Judgment

Before the genies fled human space, they tested Jack Rimes. He survived their attacks and became stronger.

Now the real enemy has been revealed, and it's more inhuman than the genies ever were.

The metacorporations fled Earth when the United Nations cracked down on labor abuses, pollution, and playing one nation against another. But the metacorporations need Earth and the colonies to survive, so they've come back. With a vengeance.

Rimes has seen cold-blooded warfare before, but the metacorporate soldiers--encased in synthetic bodies--have lost any connection with humanity. Their tactics are horrific, their willingness to commit atrocities boundless.

And with Rimes, they push too far.

What will he do once he has no reason to live? What will be his judgment?
