Jack Four

Neal Asher

Jack Four one of twenty human clones, created to be sold. His purchaser is the alien prador king, who wants to chain his mind, then use him for battle. But there's something different about Jack. No clone should possess the secrets hidden in his head -- and they could help him escape. The prador king has been mutated by the Spatterjay virus, and it's made him even more monstrous than the rest of his kind. However, the prador will use any weapon against humanity -- even in a truce with the Polity -- so they've infected a human. Now this experiment has broken free to rampage through the king's ship. Jack will have to tackle the prado and this mutation to break out. But he craves revenge as much as freedom. He's resolved to take down the slaver who sold him -- and soon he's a man with a plan and a missile launcher. What could possible go wrong?
