Patriots: Enemies From Within

dgatwood · 04-04-2015, 06:33 PM

I'm happy to announce the second book in my Patriots series of sci-fi books, "Enemies from Within", in EPUB, Kindle, and hardcover editions.

The dead-tree cover blurb is below:

Every story has two sides. This one is no exception. This book tells the other side. Beginning almost a century before Traitors In Waiting, it chronicles the lives of Mars colonists who joined the rebellion to liberate Kinji, a colony of political prisoners.

Later, when the newly formed government of Kinji is taken over by enemies from within, ECIA agent Carlie Sinclair must infiltrate Mikarta Central Intelligence (Kinji’s capital city police force) with the aid of a Mars Central Intelligence agent who is not what he seems.

Finally, as the events of Traitors in Waiting unfold, an elite team of CEA military scientists work in secret to develop a weapon that could end the war once and for all... or destroy humanity in the process.

The rumbling slowly decreased and eventually subsided. Then suddenly, as quickly as they had begun, the sirens went silent.

“This is it,” Marc said. “This is how it begins.”

And silence still.

“Oh, yeah,” he added. “It’s January 14th. Happy thirty-eighth birthday, Kurt.”

“Yeah. Whatever.”

A few minutes passed in silence, and still they heard no signs of attack. When they walked down the hall and stepped out onto the balcony, they were greeted by a dark sky with no signs of any activity whatsoever except for the normal glow of the city lights in the distance.

“Where’s the kaboom?” Marc joked. “There was supposed to be a Kinji-shattering kaboom.”

Time travel, portals, terrorist bombings, bioterror plots, murder, espionage, and attempted suicides are just the tip of the iceberg.

This novel is the second in a trilogy of parallel plots that tell the story of the end of the war between the Terran alliance and the Colonial Earth Alliance. It tells the story from the perspective of the losers. The third novel, Beyond the Veil, retells part of the first novel, Traitors in Waiting (along with a period of time before and after), from the perspective of a team of Earth civilians who were in the wrong place at the wrong time and learned things that no one was meant to know.[/indent]
