War III

WAR III PRESENTS US WITH THE LIMITS OF WAR AND HUMANITY'S PLACE IN THE CONFLICT.

The Barreiro and Giménez duo explore how, despite a distant future where machinery is essential to determining the course of a conflict, there is always room for wasted human lives.

Some of the stories included in this anthology...

In “Infante, Infante…” a combat unit wears special suits controlled by painful impulses transmitted from a command center that dictate what to do, stripping them of any vestige of humanity.

In “Farewell, soldier…” a group of exhausted infantry patrols the streets of a desolate Paris until they must put their coordination to the test to eliminate a sniper attacking from an abandoned building.

“Outpost” presents the only line of border defense in the far reaches of space and how it depends on a group of pilots who refuse to patrol until their demands are met.
