Psychic Warrior #2
Project Aura
Mind control is only the first step...
World domination is the next...
Bright Gate. HAARP. Remote Viewers. U.S. military operations so top secret that not even the president knew they existed. Now they have produced an elite group of commandos able to leave their bodies — and their souls — to fight anywhere, anytime, using the devastating power of the human mind.
Sergeant Major Jimmy Dalton is one of them. An ex-Green Beret, a man with no family, no ties, and nothing to lose, Dalton believes that the most dangerous weapon in any arsenal is the mind.
Among the first Psychic Warriors to be battle tested on the virtual plane, Dalton has seen up close the damage and destruction that the new weapons can cause. The memory will haunt him the rest of his days.
But for Dalton, for all of us, those days are numbered. A psychic cabal called the Priory is striking without warning, killing without mercy, aiming for world domination. And infiltrating the Psychic Warriors themselves....

Could have been so much better, but the editing was very sloppy and the plot confusing in places.

This took a really long time to finish. Once I finally got into it about halfway through, it got better. The ending leaves it open for more story, but I don't think anything else was written.

A story line that I thought was complicated and involved sure got a lot more complicated here. A lot of bad guys to track down.
