{"product_id":"2940012595553","title":"Mutineer","description":"For every weapon there was a defense, but not against the deadliest weapon--man himself!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eexcerpt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRaging, Trooper Lane hovered three thousand feet above Tammany Square.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cool cybrain surgically implanted in him was working on the problem. But Lane had no more patience. They'd sweat, he thought, hating the chill air-currents that threw his hovering body this way and that. He glared down at the three towers bordering on the Square. He spat, and watched the little white speck fall, fall. Lock me up in barracks. All I wanted was a little time off. Did I fight in Chi for them? Damn right I did. Just a little time off, so I shouldn't blow my top. Now the lid's gone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe was going over all their heads. He'd bowled those city cops over like paper dolls, back at the Armory. The black dog was on Lane's back. Old Mayor himself was going to hear about it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhy not? Ain't old Mayor the CinC of the Newyork Troopers?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe humming paragrav-paks embedded beneath his shoulder blades held him motionless above Newyork's three administrative towers. Tammany Hall. Mayor's Palace. Court House. Lane cursed his stupidity. He hadn't found out which one was which ahead of time. They keep Troopers in the Armory and teach them how to fight. They don't teach them about their own city, that they'll be fighting for. There's no time. From seven years old up, Troopers have too much to learn about fighting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Mayor was behind one of those thousands of windows.","brand":"eStar Books LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47081586098416,"sku":"2940012595553","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012595553_p0.jpg?v=1763570268","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012595553","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
