Quotes 

• [prologue] 

  Control Voice : Night comes too soon on the battlefield. For some men it comes permanently, their eyes never open to the light of day, but for this man fighting this war, there is never total darkness. The spidery beams of light in the sky are the descendents of the modern laser beam, heat rays that sear through tungsten steel and flesh as though they were cheesecloth, and this soldier must go against those weapons. His name is Quarlo, and he is a foot soldier, the ultimate infantryman. Trained from birth by the state, he has never known love, or closeness, or warmth. He is geared for only one purpose: to kill the enemy. And the enemy waits for him.
