Summary

Bring out the mechs and fire up the chainsword. Ready. Fight!

Mech Pilot Jessica Kramer fights to survive in the armored arenas of Junctionworld, like her father and brother before her. She’s good, but not as good. If she ever hopes to be better, she’ll need to stop getting in her own way.

When she discovers the circumstances behind her famous brother's death were more than just a result of the games, her path turns to vengeance. The deeper she digs, the harder the truth becomes, and the more sinister the plot to eliminate her as well.

Renegade cyborgs, inter-dimensional menaces, and the mysterious forces that destroyed her brother are closing in from every direction. Jessica needs to stay one step ahead or she'll have one foot in the grave. And if she ever hopes to uncover the conspiracy against her family, she’ll have to overcome her personal demons first.

If you’re a fan of Stargate or Battletech, with shades of Gladiator mixed in, you won’t want to miss this thrilling science fiction adventure from debut author Bear Ross.

A great first title from Bear Ross

I read and listen to many books in a year and a lot of these are science fiction. I was a little wary of taking a chance on Junction World Defiance but I took the plunge. I am glad that I did! On a premise of mecha arena fighting a story of a family that fought from the bottom to the top and then plunged into darkness. A strange place of world linking gates to a myriad world with hints of previous wars and future conflicts. A very likeable main character and many aliens all trying to make their way out from under the boot (or manipulator) of the Gate Lords of Junction World. The story moves at a cracking pace and left me wanting more. This is science fiction adventure in the new pulp vein! Well done to Bear Ross! Roll on more adventures.
