Psion Alpha

by Jacob Gowans

Overview

Sammy, a 14-year-old fugitive, accidentally discovers he has the powers of a Psion. A surprise attack by the Continental American Government has the NWG reeling. Countless operatives are dead: Psions, Ultras, Tensais, and Elite. Sammy and his friends have joined Thomas and Lara Byron's resistance, hoping to mount an offensive against the CAG and give the NWG a fighting chance. To prepare for this, Sammy and his team are sent on a secret mission into the heart of the most dangerous terrain on the planet. Meanwhile, the CAG isn't resting. The fox continues to lead from the shadows. The Queen's plans for revenge unfold. And horrors beyond imagination await Sammy and his team in the darkness. The Silent War is no longer silent. It has tipped in favor of the enemy. One boy can still be the difference. But to do so, he must survive.
