A Battle For Tomorrow: End of Earth, Book 1.

"A Battle For Tomorrow: End of Earth, Book 1" by Matt Simons is a thrilling novel that explores the dehumanization of soldiers during World War 3. Set in the Obama era, the story follows Jason Baker and his high school friends who are drafted into the war and sent to battle zones after North Korea's nuclear strike on Hawaii. The novel emphasizes the stripping away of humanity as a survival tactic, but also introduces a science-fiction twist that connects to the theme. Simons's fast-paced narrative delves into the horrors of combat and the transformation of young people into weapons, with a strong ending that hints at more to come. This book would appeal to fans of Elliot Ackerman and James Stavridis's "2034" and Oleg Pavlov's "The Matiushin Case." [Extracted from the article]
