WarFun: The Adze Directive by Wilf Morgan

Description

A century after the bloodthirsty, drone-powered, global slaughter of World War Omega, humanity has finally consigned Real War, with all the accompanying death and destruction to history.  Now, all international conflicts are played out in online games, with the War Fun framework overseeing everything.  The games ensure peace and safety for all.

But for Idris Kabbah, a Sierra Leone-based bio-computer scientist, the game is about to become deadly.  He has spent his life working on a technology that will provide a greater level of world peach than War Fun can provide, but his tech has attracted the attention of the mysterious Adze Project and triggers a desperate secret war.

The story unfolds through a series of gripping short stories, each one illuminating the world of WarFun from a unique angle, but always building towards a showdown between Idris, his daughter Sia and the sinister agents of the Adze Project. 381pp
