NEVER AND AGAIN combines the subversive critique of fascism in STARSHIP TROOPERS, the irreverent tone and horror of GIDEON THE NINTH, and the hard-hitting fictional war memoir format of THE THINGS THEY CARRIED. In an all too imaginable future, where the privileged lead lives untouched by wars that have become a global pastime, disenfranchised young people who “volunteer” to become super soldiers are injected with nano technology that repeatedly brings them back from death. In a race against time, one such soldier and an analyst struggle to understand strange phenomena that occur after too many glitches known as nostalgia, which even in the midst of combat can hurtle a soldier into the past. But after eight, nine, even ten resurrections lies something much worse than just glitches… Intense, visceral, and disturbingly plausible, NEVER AND AGAIN explores America’s addiction to war, the myth of meritocracy, and the ethics of technology, all feeding into the ultimate question of what makes us human.
