Synopsis

Myke Cole continues to blow the military fantasy genre wide open with an all-new epic adventure in his highly acclaimed Shadow Ops universe—set in the early days of the Great Reawakening, when magic first returns to the world and order begins to unravel…

US Navy SEAL Jim Schweitzer is a consummate professional, a fierce warrior, and a hard man to kill. But when he sees something he was never meant to see on a covert mission gone bad, he finds himself—and his family—in the crosshairs. Nothing means more to Jim than protecting his loved ones, but when the enemy brings the battle to his front door, he is overwhelmed and taken down.

That should be the end of the story. But Jim is raised from the dead by a sorcerer and recruited by a top secret unit dabbling in the occult, known only as the Gemini Cell. With powers he doesn't understand, Jim is called back to duty—as the ultimate warrior. As he wrestles with a literal inner demon, Jim realizes his new superiors are determined to use him for their own ends and keep him in the dark—especially about the fates of his wife and son…

Myke Cole's a nice guy but with one huge character flaw ... the thing I really hate about him is the way each book he writes is better than the last by a fair margin. That kind of thing gets really irritating by book #4. Anyway. This book is set before his Shadow Ops trilogy at a time when magic is j......more

Goodreads review by Bradley on March 11, 2017

Here's a neat trick and no bones or grafted body parts about it: Cole's writing is improving by leaps and bounds with each book. The novel starts with a lot of great gory action perfect for all you special-forces fans with a hankering for a huge kill-count. I'll be honest, however. It took a while be......more

Goodreads review by Peter on January 29, 2015

So it's pretty well known in the SF community that Myke Cole and I have been friends for a long time. We met in high school back in 1990, which is... shit. 25 years ago now. Wow. I feel old. Myke and I have a long and sordid history including Dungeons & Dragons, head-shaving and podcasts. We also have......more

Goodreads review by Justin on October 28, 2014

It's set ostensibly in the same world as his previous novels, but you wouldn't really know it. It feels li......more
