Blade of the Ghost (A Novella in The Red Tomorrow Series)By Joseph CruzIn the dark corners of Mars, war, deception, and survival are daily battles for those left behind on this forgotten planet. Blade of the Ghost, a novella in the The Red Tomorrow series, dives into the heart of this gritty, action-packed world. Set between The Red Frontier and The Red Destiny, this gripping interquel explores the story of Ghost as he grapples with his new reality as an invisible assassin serving the Cyborg Corsairs. Two years after the crash of a mysterious spaceship that transformed the Red Frontier into a war zone, Ghost has become a weapon for a group of ruthless cyborgs, known as the Corsairs.
Now armed with the power to disappear at will and augmented with deadly cybernetic enhancements, Ghost has been sent to eliminate high-value targets under the Corsairs' control. But the lines between hero and villain blur as Ghost embarks on his first solo mission: to infiltrate the heart of the technologically advanced Zeltan Kingdom and assassinate a man for mysterious reasons. In the industrial city of Emerral, with the cybernetic eyes of his Corsair masters watching his every move, Ghost must navigate a maze of guards, drones, and high-tech security.
One wrong step, one hesitation, and he'll be detected. But Ghost quickly realizes that stealth alone won't be enough to complete this mission. As he comes face to face with his target, Ghost is forced to confront the truth about his past, his purpose, and the shadowy forces pulling the strings behind the scenes. Ghost's katana is sharp, but his resolve wavers. With every kill, he slips further away, leaving only the deadly, invisible assassin.
Yet, amid the chaos and danger, Ghost begins to question his own existence. Is he merely a tool for the Corsairs, or does he have a choice? Can he ever escape the chains of his cybernetic masters, or is he doomed to be a weapon for as long as he lives? Blade of the Ghost is a heart-pounding tale of espionage, action, and internal conflict. Fans of The Red Tomorrow series will be captivated as they follow Ghost's perilous journey through the mechanical heart of the Zeltan Kingdom.
In this novella, Joseph Cruz explores the gray areas of morality, loyalty, and identity in a world where everyone is a monster-or fighting to survive. Perfect for readers of military sci-fi, cyberpunk, and space operas, this novella is a thrilling, character-driven story that will leave you questioning what it means to be human when you've become more machine than man. If you love a blend of high-stakes action, futuristic technology, and complex characters, Blade of the Ghost is a must-read.
