About the Book

Josh nunca poderia imaginar-se no centro de acontecimentos tão desafiadores. Numa sucessão alucinante de situações inesperadas, viu sua calma vida ser transformada numa sequência de ações de guerra e agora ele estava prestes a enfrentar inimigos superpoderosos - que ele sequer sabia que existissem. Ao seu lado, homens destemidos e mulheres fascinantes, além de uma entidade sobrenatural que somente ele tinha o privilégio de acessar. Morte, traição, romance, espionagem, fortunas em jogo, máquinas de guerra, corrupção, suspense: tudo acontecendo em menos de 100 dias. Se Josh falhasse, seus recorrentes pesadelos, que o atormentavam há muito tempo, se realizariam - e isso poderia significar o fim da espécie humana na Terra. Immortal Brigate - Brigada Imortal. Uma alusão aos Anausa - imortal em Persa antigo no tempo do imperador persa Ciro o Grande (547ac). Era uma brigada de 10.000 homens, de elite, guerreiros imbatíveis na época da conquista do Império Babilônico. Depois, foram revividos no Império Sassanida, passando a se chamar Zhayedan - que também significava imortais, mas um termo da língua persa mais recente (226 dC). Séculos depois (969 dC), foram novamente revividos no Império Bizantino, mas como uma brigada de cavalaria pesada, utilizada como uma "Tropa de Choque" nos momentos cruciais das batalhas decisivas e importantes. O epíteto "Imortais" vem de Heródoto, que os chamou de os "Dez Mil" ou "Athanatoi" - do grego, literalmente, imorredouro. Os próprios persas provavelmente não utilizavam-se deste termo. Heródoto menciona que os Imortais eram uma tropa de infantaria pesada, comandados por Hinardes, que mantinha sempre a quantidade de 10.000 homens: cada membro morto, ferido ou gravemente enfermo era imediatamente substituído por outro e, durante as batalhas, os mortos e feridos eram recolhidos pelos companheiros e substituídos rapidamente, dando ao inimigo a impressão de que o grupo não havia sofrido perdas. Em suas fileiras eram aceitos apenas persas e medos. Também era uma Tropa de Elite que sempre guardava os imperadores. Os guerreiros de Josh receberam a denominação de Immortal Brigade - ou IB - em função do uniforme poderoso que utilizavam: roupas confeccionadas com uma manta térmica especial, recheada de plaquetas de fibra de carbono. Leves, extremamente resistentes, anatômicas que aderem perfeitamente ao corpo, funcionando como uma segunda pele. Cada peça produzida é moldada a laser, tendo design específico para cada guerreiro. Estes trajes proporcionam mobilidade perfeita: movimentos rápidos, leves e precisos, especialmente ao se pilotar motos. São termoprotetoras, pois mantêm a temperatura do corpo mesmo em condições adversas. Também resistem ao fogo e são à prova de balas, inclusive tiros de fuzil, apesar de não serem pesadas como os coletes à prova de balas convencionais. Quando o guerreiro estiver na água, pode inflar o traje, acionando a entrada de ar entre as plaquetas de carbono e a malha térmica. Isto permite ao guerreio boiar, o que resulta em pouco gasto de energia física, pois diminui o esforço para nadar. Esse dispositivo facilita bastante quando há muito desgaste físico, com a permanência de muitas horas na água, especialmente em temperaturas abaixo de zero.
