The mission was supposed to be simple: destroy the mutants, seize the city, secure the supply routes, and open humanity’s path to the stars.
But the enemy they expected was not the only thing lurking in the Zone.
Ceramicor sends its soldiers into battle with fortress Walkers, overwhelming firepower, and a plan built for victory. Instead, they are dropped into a hell far hotter than anyone imagined.
The mutants are stronger, faster, and more organized than intelligence predicted. Orders become impossible to trust, and every step forward carries the operation deeper into a trap.
At the center of the assault is Jeremiah Lively, humanity’s greatest Walker pilot, fighting to keep his soldiers alive while questioning the commanders directing them from safety. The city was supposed to open the road to humanity’s future.
Instead, it may become their grave.
