Mech & Powered-Armor Infantry Science Fiction

In Aeon 14, the infantry are the hardware. Soldiers are rebuilt into mechs—human minds inside powered, armored bodies—and the line between the person and the weapon is exactly what these stories are about. Rika is turned into a mechanized warrior and has to fight her way back to her own humanity, one brutal contract at a time, while the Marauders she leads become a family forged under fire. If you want military SF where the powered armor is bolted to a beating heart, this is your front line.

If you love...

If Marko Kloos's Frontlines is your kind of grounded, soldier's-eye military SF, or you came up on the augmented-trooper action of Old Man's War and the command tension of Honor Harrington, Aeon 14's mech line fights in that same trench—with the added weight of what it costs to be turned into a weapon and claw your humanity back.

Frontlines

If Marko Kloos' Frontlines is your kind of grounded military SF, Aeon 14 brings the same soldier's-eye view.
