Crash-landed. Stranded in the middle of a post-apocalyptic land teeming with the flesh-eating, bloodthirsty dolorium—a vicious race of insects as big as farm animals.

August Ace is a rookie in over his head. It’s his first real mission and he finds himself in a squad comprised of some of the finest soldiers the dome has ever seen. The mission: Locate and destroy a massive enemy nest.

With nothing but their feet to get them across the mysterious lands where humans once dwelt, the squad must stick together to defend against the dolorium and other dangers. Can they keep from turning against each other? Is there more to this mission than meets the eye? What else lurks outside the safety of the dome?

The time has come for the rookie to see what he’s truly made of.
