The human United Protectorate is under attack by the
reptilian alien race known as the Brelac. The Brelac’s bloodthirsty
onslaught brings forth the creation of the genetically engineered
humanoid weapons called Reploids.
These Reploids are the perfect
weapon in every way; they are identical copies of real humans that have
been captured, killed, cloned, embedded with powerful psionic-based
abilities, and programmed to kill for the Brelac. They are untraceable,
they blend into human society, and they are believable — so believable,
that the Reploids themselves do not know they are clones.
Colin McKenzie is a second
generation Reploid planted in the Protectorate military. When he turns
on his commanding officer in an attempt to protect a shipwrecked band of Brelac soldiers, he is captured and reprogrammed — along with two other
arrested Reploids — to serve the government they were originally created
to destroy.
A dark alliance between the
Brelac and the separatist organization Vendetta looms over the
Protectorate. The balance is upset when the traitorous Doctor Howard
Fenlow — the scientist who is the very creator of the Reploids — manages to
produce a weapon powerful enough to bring the Protectorate to its knees.
And there are only three that can stop it.
