When a secret council decides the world's fate will rest in the hands of 24 hand-picked fighters-code named with Zodiac signs-a war to decide humanity's fate begins to unfold.
Eight powers of the world-secret representatives from the United States, China, the United Kingdom, Canada, Russia, Japan, North Korea, and South Korea-gather in the neutral territory of the Swiss Alps as the globe teeters on the brink of a nuclear war.
Tired of the baseless fighting and incapable world "leaders" currently guiding humanity into the ground, the roundtable of eight individuals comes up with a plan: a one-on-one fight, to the death, with twelve participants on each side (Western and Eastern). Whoever has the most fighters standing at the end of the 90-day contest wins.
Assigning code names based on zodiac signs-Western participants using the Western and Eastern participants using the Chinese zodiac signs-the combatants' true identities remain a secret to avoid outside interference.
Disguised as a three-month ceasefire, the Zodiac War begins. The secret representatives of the warring nations return to their conclave in the Alps, watching the hand-to-hand combat on a monitor as two people fight for their very lives.
By the end, it's anyone's guess which side will claim victory in the Zodiac War.
The perfect heart-pounding read for science fiction fans, The Zodiac War's unique approach to post-apocalyptic battles is reminiscent of fights to the death in popular books like Record of Ragnarok, the Hunger Games, and more.
