Aggressive Delivery

Elias Thorne knows the rule: couriers do not open packages.In the surveillance-choked streets of Albuquerque, 2050, Elias survives by being fast, forgettable, and silent. When 9-Line Logistics gives him a sealed medical transport job with ugly restrictions and impossible pay, he does what he always does: takes the route, keeps his head down, and asks nothing.Then the route explodes.Pinned under wreckage and bleeding out, Elias opens the case he was never meant to open. Inside is not medicine. It is Project Legion: an experimental swarm of military nanomites designed to create self-repairing, upgradeable combat operatives. Elias injects it into his thigh to survive, and the black lines crawl up his veins. Then the AI wakes.We are M.I.T.E. We will help.Now the government wants its asset back, North Star Biologics wants its property recovered, and The Bannerless want the weapon they tried to steal. M.I.T.E. wants Elias alive at any cost. Elias just wants to remain human.Brutal, darkly funny, and body-horror sharp, Aggressive Delivery launches The Legion Protocol with a courier who becomes the package everyone wants delivered back in pieces.
