The novels
describes a dystopian future where the Earth is in the middle of World War III.
The planet's natural resources are almost gone, and war is being fought to
control the assets of the solar system. The Indo-American and Russo-Chinese
alliances are fighting for supremacy through virtual reality (VR) battles in
interstellar space. The enemy is winning. The salvation may be Tom Raines. Tom
doesn't seem like a hero, but he has the virtual-reality gaming skills that
make him a phenom behind the controls of the battle drones.
