War Thug | Hugo Navikov

War Thug

Extended Synopsis

Two generations ago, the planet Earth was decimated by allied alien forces, resulting in the death of over 75 percent of humanity. The horrific carnage was finally halted only when Earth-based military units utilized untested, highly advanced technology to devastate the invaders' home planets. Fleeing into the cosmos, the remaining aliens were relentlessly hunted down by platoons of Space Navy SEALs, arguably the most elite and effective fighting force ever engineered.

Every member of a Space Navy platoon receives genetic and cybernetic Enhancements to their sight, hearing, healing, and memory. Yet, none compare to the crew of the Blue Celeste, because they boast a unique asset: War Thug. A legendary one-man killing machine, he guarantees his squad's safety by ensuring not a single alien—sentient or "bug"—survives their deployments in the War Council's ongoing War Against Alien Aggression.

In this explosive opening volume, the platoon's newest assignment seems straightforward: rescue three scientists stranded on a planet overrun by vicious Xenos. However, upon touching down, the 12-SEAL unit quickly realizes the mission is a deadly trap. As elite soldiers begin to mysteriously vanish without a trace, War Thug and his remaining team must desperately search for their comrades, extract the scientists, and survive an impending swarm of deadly Xenos. War Thug takes readers on a relentless, action-packed thrill ride into a dark universe filled with alien terror, bloody combat, and a far-reaching galactic conspiracy.
