The Northern Star Trilogy: Omnibus Edition

The Omnibus Edition of The Northern Star science fiction saga includes The Beginning, which Examiner hailed as "One of The Top 5 Indie-Published Books You Haven't Read, But Should," Civil War, which the Midwest Book Review stated was "military sci-fi and futuristic cyber-reality at its best," and the just released final novel, The End, that Bartleby's Book Reviews says "is harsh, critical and doesn't pull any punches . . . a great way to end a fantastic trilogy."

THE NORTHERN STAR: THE BEGINNING
2058. As the struggle for dwindling resources plunges the world into chaos, and "Mindlink" technology opens cyberspace to the masses, injured soldier John Raimey is transformed into a powerful bionic warrior (known as a Tank Major) to retrieve the King Sleeper: a computer hacker so devastating on-line, he can decimate government infrastructure, subliminally persuade the masses, and even kill.

THE NORTHERN STAR: CIVIL WAR
The Northern Star: The Beginning showed us a violent, technology dependent world where the Coalition - the combined might of China, the U.S., and the EU - occupied oil-rich countries to take all that remained. The Northern Star: Civil War takes us further down the rabbit hole, where the digital connectedness of our world has allowed one man to subvert nations in his quest for immortality. In the first novel, John Raimey, a crippled soldier, sacrificed himself for duty and family and became the first Tank Major, a bionic soldier powerful enough to level buildings. His sacrifice was in vain. Ten years later, mentally ill, estranged from his daughter, and stationed in Africa to protect the mines needed to keep cyberspace alive, he airdrops into a town where the adults are murdered and the children abducted. What Raimey uncovers sets him on a quest to save his daughter, no matter the cost.

THE NORTHERN STAR: THE END
In the first two novels of The Northern Star, Mike Gullickson showed us a future where the connectedness of our world has betrayed us, where good and evil are shades of gray, and the power hungry manipulate each other to reach their means, and care little for the pawns. The final novel wraps up the journey of John Raimey, who - thirty-five years before - became the first Tank Major, a fourteen foot tall bionic with enough power in his fists to level buildings. He is a legend of war, cursed with a fate where everyone he touches - even in love - dies. Evan Lindo, the father of bionics, now rules the world through his most ingenious creation, The Northern Star. But a war in the Middle East has triggered events that lead to Raimey. And a hideous betrayal has been unveiled that sets Raimey on one last mission before he dies: kill his creator.
