O knihe

This is a story of technology and its relationship with today's combat situations. The acronym VICTORS stands for Validation, Infiltration, and Capture/Terrorize Objective Resolution. The main part of this program is a group of artificial intelligence driven/satellite controlled land drones. They have exceptional combat and surveillance capabilities and utilize the eight legged propulsion of large 200 pound tarantula spiders.

¿My name is William Lynn Smith and no, the FBI did not select it for me. I am a boomer (born in 1950) and I grew up among a whole bunch of story tellers in West Tennessee along the Mississippi River. In 1968 I started a life time career in the rail transportation industry and retired in 2009. During that time I worked as a switchman in the rail yard, supervisor of the yard, safety manager for the Yellowstone Division, haz-mat emergency responder and finally the Manager of Government Reporting for BNSF Railroad. All during that time I listened. Listened to the tall and short tales told by folks coming in and out of my life. Finally after retirement, and with a great deal of time on my hands, I began to write them down. I began doing that for my own memory and finally fictionalizing them into novels and short stories. I have always had a vivid imagination and that wasn't always a good thing. As a kid it cost me several trips to the tractor shed. Now that imagination plus the life experiences have blossomed into books that I pray will entertain my readers
