War turns soldiers into light—literally.
In the corporate-run war against Mars, infantry grunts are broken down into particles and beamed to distant battlefronts. Most return changed. Some don’t return at all. But when fresh recruit Dietz starts dropping into battles that don’t align with mission briefings, something becomes terrifyingly clear: reality is out of sync.
Each combat drop reveals pieces of a war that isn’t what it seems—and a truth the corporate brass would kill to keep buried. As Dietz spirals through time, memory, and mayhem, survival means more than following orders. It means questioning everything.
From Hugo Award winner Kameron Hurley, The Light Brigade is a mind-bending sci-fi thriller that blends military grit with temporal chaos in a blistering indictment of war, loyalty, and corporate control.
