This Week’s Science Fiction Book:
Mind
Storm:
A
Strykers
Syndicate
Novel
by K.M. Ruiz
Two
hundred
and
fifty
years
after
the
world
was
nearly
wiped
out
by
nuclear
war,
what’s
left
of
society
fights
over
the
scraps
of
the
Earth
as
the
rich
and
powerful
plan
to
ascend
in
secret
to
another
planet.
But
the
deadly
new
breed
of
humanity
that
the
rulers
have
enslaved
to
protect
their
interests
are
about
to
change
everything.
K.M.
Ruiz’s
Mind
Storm
is
the
rip-roaring
tale
of
Threnody
Corwin,
a
“psion”
with
the
ability
to
channel
electricity
like
lightning
through
anything
she
touches.
As
a
solider-slave
for
the
human
government,
Threnody
is
recruited
by
an
unknown
enemy:
the
scion
of
Earth’s
most
powerful
(and
supposedly
human)
family,
the
Serca
Syndicate.
But
Lucas
Serca
is
far
from
human
and
he
intends
to
make
Threnody
and
her
fellow
psions
meet
their
destiny,
no
matter
how
many
people
he
has
to
kill
to
do
it.
Mind
Storm
is
the
first
of
two
books
chronicling
the
fight
for
survival
by
the
psions
and
other
“gene-trash”
humans,
before
they’re
killed
by
the
racist
world
government,
or
left
to
die
on
a
crumbling
Earth.
