Beschreibung
Planetside is a smart and fast-paced blend of mystery and boots-in-the-dirt military SF that reads like a high-speed collision between Courage Under Fire and Heart of Darkness. Marko Kloos, bestselling author of the Frontline seriesA seasoned military officer uncovers a deadly conspiracy on a distant, war-torn planetWar heroes aren't usually called out of semi-retirement and sent to the far reaches of the galaxy for a routine investigation. So when Colonel Carl Butler answers the call from an old and powerful friend, he knows it's something bigand he's not being told the whole story. A high councilor's son has gone MIA out of Cappa Base, the space station orbiting a battle-ravaged planet. The young lieutenant had been wounded and evacuatedbut there's no record of him having ever arrived at hospital command.The colonel quickly finds Cappa Base to be a labyrinth of dead ends and sabotage: the hospital commander stonewalls him, the Special Ops leader won't come off the planet, witnesses go missing, radar data disappears, and thats before he encounters the alien enemy. Butler has no choice but to drop down onto a hostile planetbecause someone is using the war zone as a cover. The answers are thereButler just has to make it back aliveNot just for military SF fansalthough military SF fans will love itPlanetsideis an amazing debut novel, and Im looking forward to what Mammay writes next.
