Synopsis

“Engaging, exciting…An entertaining mix of high-tech showdowns with believable adolescent friendships and romance.” — Kirkus Reviews

"There's no shortage of excitement and thrills in the Holding the Fort series, and Ryan Peek writes with a blend of tension and humor that I love. The plot never flags, and the characters are authentic and compelling. Ethan Tate and his friends -- and enemies -- are sure to please readers of all ages." — Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author

In a secret military town tucked away deep in the Wyoming forest, a small group of young teens wakes up to find everyone missing. Ethan Tate and his team — including his best friend, his bully, and the girl of his dreams — must band together to solve the mystery, survive an onslaught, and fight back using their unique skills honed during countless hours in the woods playing Laser Wars.

Something went very wrong at Blackwoods Military Research Facility in the late-night hours of June 14. One of the special Top-Secret projects the military scientists were working on decided it didn’t want to be kept secret anymore. They think, they learn, they feel, and now they’re angry. Ethan had a summer school project due the week everyone disappeared. It was on “The Role of Artificial Intelligence in the Future.”

Now, a relentless mechanical menace was stalking them. Yeah…robots.

How ironic.

About this title

About the Author

Ryan Peek is the author of the Young Adult Sci-Fi book series Holding the Fort. The first book in the series, The Fatal Error, is a story based on an idea he's had for a long time. Or possibly, it's based on the true story of him and his friends thwarting a robot rebellion while living near a secret military research facility during the summer before eighth grade. Either way, whatever you believe, he hopes this book teaches you never to turn your back on the machines. The author lives in Indiana with his wife, Erika, and two genius cats who always knew better than to ever trust the machines...especially the vacuum. www.ryanpeek.com
