Publisher Description

Five foot nothing and no fear because she drives a sixty-ton mech. Enter Lieutenant Xi Bao...

Does humanity deserve to survive? The Metal Legion, aging mechs with a lot of fight left in them. They lead the way, find the enemy’s weaknesses and exploit the hell out of them. Then they call in suborbital artillery to finish the job, even while the battle rages.

Never fight fair when fighting for your life. This is the motto of the Metal Legion. They fight to win.

The mechs stand tall, or crawl, or run, or scamper. A dozen different designs, held together by rough welds and sheer willpower. But the bodies within, like Xi Bao, refuse to give up, refuse to give in.

Taking her Scorpion-class mech underground, she finds the enemy, in numbers far greater than she was told. Knee deep in the war, her crew gives their old mech new vigor for one last chance at glory.

Victory or death! Fight to survive. Fire the mains and enjoy the company of the crew as they live for each other, as they fight for all humanity. Unleash the Scorpion’s fury. Join the Metal Legion today.
