The Augmented Man by Joseph Carrabis

Set in the future, this is a story of a high tech solider that has become redundant to the world after they have fought the wars. This story is so familiar in today’s world and the past, as governments the world over treat their returning soldiers with callousness and the lack of appreciation. Once the fighting is over, the government wants nothing more to do with those who have done their duty. It also brought up the memory of Ozzie Osborne’s Iron Man.

But what to do with a super soldier that cannot be destroyed. As the ex-soldier tries to find a place in the world, the government wants to get rid of its deadly secret. They draw battle lines, only to find that there is a more dangerous enemy on the battlefield.

The story is an exciting and thoughtful look at how soldiers are treated after the fighting stops.
