Swayed by the promise of financial rewards, a new batch of recruits joins the fight alongside a slew of mysteriously docile criminals--and a few dubious military leaders. Eighteen-year-old Jim Raynor, full of testosterone and eager to make things right at home, ships off to boot camp and finds his footing on the battlefield, but he soon discovers that the official mission is not what he's really fighting for. For the first time ever, StarCraft enthusiasts will learn the ori-gins of the enduring friendship between the young upstart Jim Raynor and the streetwise soldier Tychus Findlay. Watch as they battle on the front lines of a fierce interplanetary war and bear witness to the Confederacy's rank corruption--corruption so reprehensible that it rains immeasurable death and destruction upon the government's own people. Zusammenfassung In this prequel novel to StarCraft II, William C. Dietz reveals the extraordinary backstory of legendary outlaw heroes Jim Raynor and Tychus Findlay.
