About the book

"The pilots of Flyboy, Inc., landed on the alien planet of Iaxo with a mission: In one year, quash an insurrection; expliot the ancient enmities of an indigenous, tribal societyl and kill the hell out of one group of natives to facilitate negociations with the surviving group-all over 110 million acres of mixed terrain. At first, the double-hush, back-burner project went well. With a ten-century technilogical lead on the locals, the logistical support of a powerful private military company, and aid from other outfits on the ground, it was supposed to be an easy-in, easy-out mission that would make the pilots of Flyboy, Inc., very, very rich. But the natives of Iaxo had another plan-and what was once a strategic slam-dunk has become a quagmire, leaving the pilots of Flyboy, Inc., on an embattled distant planet, waiting for support and a ride home that may never come...This dark debut novel tells the tale of a secret war-and the struggle to stay sane in a world that makes no sense. A Catch-22 for a new generation, A Private Little War is sure to become a science fiction classic-cover verso."
