“I swear everything Jonathan Maberry touches is literary gold. Alpha Wave, book 1 of The Sleeper’s War is definitely my new favourite Science Fiction obsession. Halo meets The Expanse in this futuristic world where Earth has fallen to its greatest enemy. Now the Resistance’s only hope is to find and wake the Sleepers - a group of modified human soldiers created to be better than the best and the only reason Earth won the first war with The Flock. But 200 years is a long time to be on ice, and no one knows exactly what the Sleepers are or what they may have become. Waking them might not be the victory the Resistance is hoping for, but one thing is certain: without the Sleepers Earth is doomed.”
— Kristi W. • Owl's Nest Books
Created to defeat the invaders. Forgotten in victory. They will rise again …
We were outnumbered, outfought. Mankind was about to fall to the alien Flock. Our only chance was a desperate gamble, transforming Tier One SpecOps agents into deadly super soldiers.
In the end, we won the war, but we lost the peace. The Flock surrendered and spent the next two hundred years making reparations, indentured to humanity, doing everything humans did not want to do. And the evolved super soldiers were consigned to an endless sleep. Ready if ever needed, but in time they became myths. Abandoned and forgotten.
And then, when we were content in our dominance, the Flock revolted against all of humanity across the whole of the galaxy. We fell in a single day.
Which is when the dreams began. People across the settled worlds began dreaming of the Sleepers. The evolved saviors. Acts of rebellion and terrorism swept the galaxy, and in response the Flock ground us under heel.
Lexi Chow, descendant of a hero of the Flock War, believes the Sleepers are real, and are humanity’s only chance against the alien conquerors. With a crew of misfits, criminals, and believers, she sets out to wake the Sleepers. Hoping they will once more save us.
If the betrayed Sleepers are willing. If the Sleepers are even human.
If the Sleepers are on our side at all …
