Training Days

 I survived their deadly game. Now they're turning me into a weapon. Big mistake.

They stripped me naked, healed my wounds with tiny robots, and put me in a tank. When I woke up, I was faster, stronger, and built to kill.

I won the first Race, but my "prize" was a ticket to the next one—and a whole lot of unwanted enhancements. My new home is a cold, silent German castle. My new job is training. And my new instructor, Sunil Jamwal, is a goddamn panther with a black belt. He's kicking my arse every day, pushing my new body past every limit.

My Patron, Von Zimmer, wants me to fight his war against his rivals. He thinks his new and improved Runner will be a contender. He thinks I'm finally his property. He's wrong.

I'm letting them train me. I'm letting them make me stronger. But I'm not fighting for them. I'm fighting for revenge, for freedom, and for every penny of gold.

The next race is coming. And this time, I'm ready to shatter the opposition.

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Battle Royale, and The Running Man.
