Tin Men by Christopher Golden, which arrived yesterday via Kindle pre-order. America takes drone technology to its logical conclusion and starts deploying remote-piloted robot infantry in order to intervene in even more conflicts, then wonders why everyone hates them more. The shoe hasn't dropped yet, but our heroes just logged on for their shift and the streets of Damascus are weirdly empty (if it was a western, this is the point where a tumbleweed would blow throw town and startle the kid into drawing on it). Heading back in for another session shortly.
