FALLEN DRAGON
Peter F. Hamilton
Deploying invulnerable
twenty-fifth-century soldiers called Skins, Zantiu-Braun's corporate
starships loot entire planets. But as the Skins invade bucolic
Thallspring, Z-B's strategy is about to go awry, all because of: Sgt.
Lawrence Newton, a dreamer whose twenty years as a Skin have destroyed
his hopes and desires; Denise Ebourn, a school teacher and resistance
leader whose guerrilla tactics rival those of Che Guevara and George
Washington and Simon Roderick, the director who serves Z-B with a
dedication that not even he himself can understand. Grimly determined to
steal, or protect, a mysterious treasure, the three players engage in a
private war that will explode into unimaginable quests for personal
grace...or galactic domination
