Publisher's summary
One hundred years from now, and against all the odds, Earth has found a new stability; the political order has reached some sort of balance, and the new colony on Mars is growing. But the fraught years of the 21st century have left an uneasy legacy....
Genetically engineered alpha males designed to fight the century's wars have no wars to fight and are surplus to requirements. And a man bred and designed to fight is a dangerous man to have around in peacetime. Many of them have left for Mars, but now one has come back and killed everyone else on the shuttle he returned in.
Only one man, a genengineered ex-soldier himself, can hunt him down - and so begins a frenetic manhunt and a battle for survival. And a search for the truth about what was really done with the world's last soldiers....
Thirteen is an unstoppable SF thriller, but it is also a novel about prejudice, about the ramifications of playing with our genetic blueprint. It is about our capacity for violence - but, more worrying, our capacity for deceit and corruption.
This is another landmark of modern SF from one of its most exciting and commercial authors.

A Classic.
If you dont mind the "Language" and see it for what it is. This is a brilliantly written story that checks all the boxes for genre fans.

Cheap sex interupted by a poor story
What was most disappointing about Richard Morgan’s story?
This story would be better in a print version for a teenager looking for masturbation material.
