Requiem of Flesh: The Siege Lebanon

You've seen the propaganda: the towering mutant in the walker cockpit with neon-purple eyes gazing at the horizon, the corporation's logo stitched into every broadcast. But what happens when the cameras are off? Jeremiah Lively knows that the brand only shows what it wants you to see. He's Ceramicor's most lethal weapon, a seven-foot genetic mutation who survived the flesh change, returning stronger, faster, and nearly immortal.In a future where corporations control the air you breathe, Jeremiah represents humanity's last hope. Yet the recruitment footage conceals the hidden bottle, the engagement ring he's forbidden to use, and the surveillance feeds monitoring every tremor in his hands. As night descends on the fortress-city, the system tightens its grip. Ceramcor's latest gamble is a military campaign to reclaim the wasteland from mutant hordes and push civilization toward the stars.Delta Team boards dropships, as a cyborg squad with half their brains replaced by corporate hardware sign contracts that promise no survival. Jeremiah, hungover and hollow, begins noticing inconsistencies: rotten intel, cameras looped to conceal threats, and an immortal founder who looks at him like a pawn nearing the end of the game. The threat isn't in space but seated in the executive suite, issuing launch orders aware of the trap.This is cyberpunk in collapse-a space opera from the losing side, where corporate personhood has consumed every human connection and free choice is dangerous. Four narrators trace the descent into the depths of civilizational ruin. Glitching cyborgs and back-alley clinics, adventures ending in casualties, and travel into danger are grueling slogs. Genetic mutation, body horror, military discipline, and corporate sabotage collide. A hero learns he is aging out of greatness. If you want sci-fi where loyalty is just a line item, and betrayal lurks in every conversation, Requiem of Flesh is your next read. When the transmission goes dark, what you see in the shadows may or may not be real.
