"The eagerly awaited sequel to Vector delivers with a vengeance." ForemostPress.com
Virus, the sequel to Vector, tells of the Resistance's continuing defense and the team's deployment on an emergency reconnaissance mission. But the mission discovers more than they bargained for: clues to the true nature of their enemies and the darkest secrets of mankind. Finally, one option remains, that of storming the most secure enemy fortress on the planet. Tough enough odds when they're battling not only their enemies but also treason, conspiracy, and doublecrossing within their own ranks.

The Earth has seen plague, alien conquest, and virtual annihilation of the human species. Most of the humans that remain are virtual captives of the Cybernetic Brotherhood. Only a few rebels, calling themselves Raiders, are free from the tyranny of the Brotherhood. Their mission is a difficult one. Outnumbered and outgunned, these men and women must bring down these impregnable forces. Moreover, the job has to be done with the utmost secrecy so that the Brotherhood doesn't catch onto their game plan and destroy those few humans remaining. Perhaps a virus is the answer. A virus that will infect the entire cybernetic system leaving it both deaf and dumb for just long enough.
Virus is a well developed, smart sci fi with lots of action, intrigue, and some unique alien species based upon the premise what if the dinosaurs had continued to evolve. Revenge of the reptiles. The detail was amazing, so much so that I often wished that I could see the action on scene so I could fully comprehend all the nuances and wouldn't miss any of the little details.

A resident of Ventura, California, author Stephen J. Schrader's new science fiction novel, Virus takes us on a startling journey to a chilling and grim future society. The tale emerges from its predecessor, Vector.
Terror, death, and destruction await all of the few human survivors on an earth now dominated by the Brotherhood, made up of sadistic, half-human cyborgs, and the savage monsters of the invading alien Hivers.
The survivors of Griffon's old Earth team and their Raider allies are called out on an emergency reconnaissance mission. They soon find themselves rocked to the core by the horror they uncover.
As the situation intensifies, they challenge their enemies in a desperate battle, fought far beneath the earth's surface. At stake is the fate of the human race.
Schrader is a former Army Counterintelligence Agent. With his adventurous background, he's able to use many of his military experiences in his writings. Science fiction has been an intense interest of his since childhood.
You'll love the colorful in-depth characters in Virus, and you'll cringe at the many deadly alien creatures. The action is fast paced. You will find yourself reading voraciously to the very end. And hoping for more of the same to come. Another sequel? We hope so.
