Description
"Open the cinema of your mind and grab the popcorn the blockbuster you've been waiting for has just arrived." John Scalzi, author of The Kaiju Preservation Society
In the near future, Earth has been conquered by a race of brutal alien machines known as the Mek, and an entire generation has grown up under their oppressive rule.
When Dakota Bregman, a rebellious young woman imprisoned in a Mek labor camp stumbles across a mysterious map that may hold the secret to humanity's liberation, she escapes and embarks on a dangerous odyssey across an alien-occupied America that leads her to an amazing discovery - a long-lost prototype war machine known as a Gundog. Created by the last defenders of Earth, it has lain dormant for decades, hidden away. Waiting for someone to wake it up.
Now Dakota must confront a legacy she never knew she had, and embrace the warrior she was meant to be, facing down impossible odds and an overwhelmingly superior enemy in the hope of sparking a new flame of human resistance...

Reviews
From the writer of The Book of Eli and the co-writer of Star Wars: Rogue One.
"Gary Whitta is one of our very best science fiction writers, writing the kind of movies and books I watch and read science fiction for. Gundog is everything I want out of the genre. Fast paced, hardcore, and emotional. It grabs you by the lapels and drags you on an action adventure that you will only put down to refill your coffee or beer before curling back up on the couch to finish." C. Robert Cargill, author of Sea of Rust
"A bad-ass storytelling spectacle by a masterful writer." Chuck Windig, author of Black River Orchard
"I read it cover-to-cover in a single day the twists made it impossible to put down." Nicole Perlman, co-writer of Guardians of the Galaxy
"Heavy, hard-hitting, and bold. It grabs you in its iron fist and never lets go." Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of Wool
