In a not-so-distant future, the State genetically engineered soldiers to be the protectors of humanity, cutting out all emotion and unique thought. After their years of public service, these soldiers were routinely displaced, frozen in time along with society’s worst offenders.

Distant is part of the Soldier Novellas, set after the events of Displaced.
