Publisher Comments:

The military sci-fi classic in a striking new package

Felix is an Earth soldier, encased in special body armor designed to withstand Earth's most implacable enemy-a bioengineered, insectoid alien horde. But Felix is also equipped with internal mechanisms that enable him, and his fellow soldiers, to survive battle situations that would destroy a man's mind.

This is a remarkable novel of the horror, the courage, and the aftermath of combat-and how the strength of the human spirit can be the greatest armor of all.

Synopsis:

'Body armor has been devised for the commando forces that are to be dropped on Banshee-the home of the most implacable of humanity\'s enemies. A trooper in this armor is a one-man, atomic-powered battle fortress, but he will have to fight a nearly endless horde of berserk, hard-shelled monsters.'

Synopsis:

The classic novel of military science fiction is available once again. Felix, a man consumed by fear and hatred, is a one-man, atomic-powered battle fortress while in his armor. Reissue.
