Series: Lazarus War
Mankind has spread to the stars, only to become locked in warfare with an insidious alien race. All that stands against the alien menace are the soldiers of the Simulant Operation Programme, an elite military team remotely operating avatars in the most dangerous theatres of war. 

Captain Conrad Harris has died hundreds of times - running suicide missions in simulant bodies. Known as Lazarus, he is a man addicted to death. So when a secret research station deep in alien territory suddenly goes dark, there is no other man who could possibly lead a rescue mission.  But Harris hasn't been trained for what he's about to find. And this time, he may not be coming back...

Artefact is an action-drenched tale of elite space marines, deep space exploration and galactic empires.  Discover The Lazarus War - the thrilling new space opera series from one of the most exciting new voices in science fiction.

Reviews for Artefact (#1 Lazarus War)

Artefact is a gripping read that moves at warp speed Jack Campbell, author of THE LOST FLEET novels Gripping, gritty and unsentimental - Sawyer shows us how perilous future war can be Michael Cobley, author of the Humanity's Fire series A hostile race of alien biomechs somewhat in the mould of H R Giger aliens ... terrorism, subterfuge and traitors ... starships sporting particle beam weapons, railguns the size of skyscrapers, laser batteries, missiles... And then there are the uber-human super-soldiers clad in powered armour and wielding plasma weapons... Is that enough for you? ... This, dear readers, is the good stuff. Recommended. Neal Asher, author of the Agent Cormac novels Hyper-speed entertainment from a new master of science fiction William C. Dietz, author of the Legion novels and HALO tie-in novels A highly promising science fiction debut - a fun, gripping adventure story, with a mystery at its core that kept me turning the pages Gary Gibson, author of STEALING LIGHT Artefact is an adrenaline shot of rip-roaring military SF packed with cinematic action sequences and tightly drawn characters. I look forward returning to the company of hardman Conrad Harris and his motley crew of simulants and soldiers time and again Stephen Deas, author of THE ADAMANTINE PALACE
