Ghost brigades. Skalzi J.

In the midst of the intergalactic war between the Alliance of three alien species and humanity, the scientist Charles Buten, who has the main military secrets of his fellow tribesmen, goes over to the side of the enemy. In order to win, defense forces must find out the reasons for this betrayal.

The only one who is able to give answers is Jared Dirac - a superhuman hybrid based on Buten DNA, who has access to the electronic recording of his memories. Alas, the memory transplantation ends with failure, and Jared is sent to the ghost brigade - the special forces of the colonies defense forces created from the DNA of the dead fighters. These are perfect soldiers: young, fast, strong. Minus one: the complete absence of remorse and morality. But is it so bad?

At first, the Jared is the perfect soldier, but as the memories of Buten slowly pop up to the surface, he begins to intuitively understand the cause of the scientist’s act. Meanwhile, time is running out: the Alliance prepares an offensive and plans for people something worse than military defeat.
