Burn Threshold (Overcrank, #1)
Description
Brock Valencia was always driven by the need to be faster, stronger, better. As a former military operative, he was an exceptional fighter, but his human limitations always gnawed at him.
That is, until he volunteered for the Overcrank project-a top-secret cy-bernetic enhancement initiative designed to push the limits of human performance. The procedure granted Brock incredible power, fusing him with a high-tech, augmented body that could overclock its systems for short bursts of superhuman speed and strength.
As Overcrank, Brock can move faster than the eye can follow, shattering obstacles with his enhanced strength and tearing through enemies with devastating precision. But with great power comes great risk. The enhancements that fuel his abilities are tem-peramental-his cybernetics overheat quickly, forcing Brock to manage his bursts care-fully.
Each use of his power is a gamble, pushing his body closer to catastrophic failure. The physical toll feeds into his deepest fear: losing control. Whether it's a glitch in his sys-tems or a breakdown of his human self, Brock is haunted by the thought that one day, he'll go too far, and the machinery will overrun him completely. Despite this, he fights on-always seeking the next mission, the next fight, but never fully trusting the machine within him.
