Four years before taking humanity to Titan with Mission One, Samuel Best created CITYFALL, a non-stop action scifi experience...
Chicago, 3481.
Sergeant Declan Cole and his elite soldiers have one job: keep their city from erupting into all-out war.
When a treasonous member of the ruling elite sparks a conflict between two powerful dynasties, Cole and his squad charge into the merciless crossfire before chaos rips the city apart. Yet no good deed goes unpunished, and the team soon discovers betrayal from within.
Attacked by enemies on all sides, the soldiers must survive long enough to exact vengeance for their bitter losses and regain a fragment of peace for their crumbling city.
CITYFALL combines military science fiction with survival in a battle-worn police state to bring you a unique, high-octane adventure packed with futuristic weapons, vehicles, and technology.
Born in Cape Canaveral, Florida, Samuel grew up a mile from the gates of Kennedy Space Center. His grandmother built space shuttles, his father designed scientific equipment that flew on them, and Samuel watched the launches from his rattling front porch, dreaming of the stars.
His best-selling novel Mission One, a near-future first contact odyssey, is the book that launched his career as a science fiction writer.
He recently spent three years traveling the world with his wife. They welcomed their son near the end of that journey and are now spending their days exploring the United States while Samuel works on his next book.

This is outside the type of books I enjoy, but I like Samuel Best and gave it a try.
It was fun and certainly there was lots of action. The characters were developed as well as expected, given that in this genre there's never really enough time to do so amidst all the shooting.
