War Cry

Brian McClellan

War Cry

A brand new novella from the author of the acclaimed Powder Mage series.

Teado is a Changer, a shape-shifting military asset trained to win wars. His platoon has been stationed in the Bavares high plains for years, stranded. As they ration supplies and scan the airwaves for news, any news, their numbers dwindle. He's not sure how much time they have left.

Desperate and starving, armed with aging, faulting equipment, the team jumps at the chance for a risky resupply mission, even if it means not all of them might come. What they discover could change the course of the war.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
