Detonation Event: Mars Wars Book 1

In a dystopian future where Earth's iron-fisted regime controls every resource, dissent means re-education or death. Mars Orbiter 1, once a beacon of scientific hope, is now a sanctuary for a ragtag crew of rebels led by the enigmatic Captain Ry Devans. A battle-scarred veteran with perhaps a touch of space madness and a knack for bending rules, Devans faces an enemy that seems invincible. When a rogue Martian virus -- stolen from the brilliant Dr. Karen Wagner's research lab -- threatens humanity's survival, Devans must step up as the ultimate rebel leader. Planetary shuttles turn into fierce war machines. The fate of humanity teeters on the edge. Will Devans save his crew and humanity, or will their rebellion plunge the galaxy into chaos? "e;Interesting and intelligent."e; —David Drake
