Summary
Battle Beyond Earth: Resurrection. The first instalment in
an epic new series that tells of humanity's desperate
struggle to survive in an uncertain and war-torn future. Four centuries have passed since the end of the alien
invasion that almost destroyed humanity. The surviving races,
human and alien, now live in peace as allies. But when a
terrifying new enemy cuts a path of destruction through the
Alliance, there seems little hope of resistance. The
situation is desperate, and desperate measures are required.
With reluctance, they agree to resurrect a hero from the
past, Colonel Mitch Taylor. A mortally wounded man held in
suspended animation since the end of the last war. A man who
may hold the only key to their survival. Taylor emerges into a world he no longer recognises. A new
alien race lives among them, a race he does not trust.
Society, the Marine Corps, even the way he speaks, nothing
fits this new life. Many in the Alliance refuse to accept
him, for Taylor is an icon of a bygone era. Respected by
some, hated by many. Isolated, alone, regarded as little more
than a relic of a past era, he must accept the horror of
knowing his old life is gone. He must also overcome the new
enemy that stands before him, an enemy that wants nothing
more than to destroy all known life in the universe. Battle Beyond Earth is a futuristic sci-fi action
adventure, a standalone story in its own right. Yet it will
also give a new perspective and a new storyline to the
readers who followed Mitch Taylor's exploits in the epic
series 'Battle Earth'.
