Tank: A Metal Bones Story
Publisher Description
In an alien vs. alien world, there isn't room for weakness. Only survival.
All of his life, Tank has trained with his father to become the ultimate killing machine. He hopes to compete in The Ceremony, a fight to the death between others in his village who are of age and willing to participate.
In contrast, his friend Naf is too small and weak for anyone to take him seriously enough to train. Even with Tank's help, Naf struggles to pick up basic combat moves, much less defend himself against the local bully, Roaz, who is determined to see both Tank and Naf fail.
Right now, Naf's a liability, and the last thing Tank needs is dead weight. Tank doesn't know if Naf will learn to fight back before the next attack comes. When it does, he'll have to decide if saving his friend is worth sacrificing his future.
