Pipe Hitters

The war is over. The world is lost. But the fight has just begun.

Master Sergeant Yaël Sion was trained to be the deadliest special operator on Earth. But survival in the new world is a different kind of battle. After escaping the Fall of Israel, fighting her way across overrun Europe, and surviving the destruction of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, she thought she was done running. And that she stood alone in the ruins.

But now she has been conscripted onto Echo team, a misfit band of warriors thrown together from the remnants of the world's last best elite special operators. Their mission is simple: strike deep, hit hard, and take back the last of what humanity needs to survive.

But in a fallen world, no mission is simple. And survival comes at a heavy price.

Even within the last stronghold of humanity, Yaël is her own worst enemy, and must battle more than the dead. Haunted by her past, plagued by guilt, loss, and the trauma of endless war, she must struggle to find her place in a team that doesn't trust her, and prove she belongs—or risk losing everything. If she doesn't overcome her demons, she won't just fail the mission. She'll get people killed, perhaps everyone left alive, and be cast out to face the end of the world alone.

If she can't become a soldier they can trust, she'll never become the hero humanity needs.

Some wars never end. Some soldiers never stop.

And, this time, there is no extraction.

ARISEN.

Hope never dies.
