He's the only sane soldier on the eternal front, and it's enough to drive him mad.
Gole Naremsa is new to the trenches of the Eternal Front. Despite a lifetime of training and a genetic inheritance that makes him a born warrior, it's not what he expects.
His problems start on the first day, after a misunderstanding that leaves his new sergeant stunned on the ground. One blindly thrown punch, one minor accident with a noisy corpse, and now he's an example for the rest of the new replacements.
It's shaping up to be a race between who will kill Gole first: the increasingly dangerous enemy in the far trenches, or his own unit. At least the enemy isn't rude about it!
"...Gritty and clever..."
"...with a dark humor..."
Walter Blaire's Lines of Thunder books follow the modern space opera tradition of Iain M. Banks, Vernor Vinge, and Walter Jon Williams. This short novel visits characters from other books, but it can be read as a standalone adventure. (140-page science fiction coming-of-age adventure.)
