Crossover

Ferro-enamelous bone, equivalent in strength to spacecraft hull ribbing. Muscles of synth-alloy myonmer. Insatiable sex drive. Designation GI-5074J-HK. A GI made by the League during the war against the Federation. The GIs were extremely strong, but the Federation had the brains. Until Captain Cassandra Kresnov.

Cassandra Kresnov went AWOL from the League over a year ago. The problem with an experimental GI with a brain that can think for itself is that sometimes, they no longer believe in what their creators are having them fight for. Cassandra is a machine who has emotions, a machine who decided that to work for the men that killed her teammates she loved was out of the question. A killing machine who started her life over in the software engineering field.

Unfortunately, her previous life wasn't giving up that easily. Tracked down and dismembered by her previous government, Cassandra is saved by a CSA SWAT member on a biotech raid. CSA and the Federation aren't known for their love of the GIs and it isn't until an attack on the President of Callay that Cassandra is finally trusted. Then the fun begins.

Crossover by Joel Shepherd would've made a better movie then Ultraviolet by far. Then again, almost anything would be better than Ultraviolet. At 457 pages, Crossover is a bit on the bigger side, but its still an awesome read. The book leaves you with a sense of wanting to know how Cassandra turns out, if she stays with the CSA or if she gets to be the civilian she wants to be. I'll have to read Breakaway to see how that turns out.
