"A brilliantly imagined universe." Jennifer Killick
‘The cockpit is a lonely place when it feels like your mech is your enemy…’
On his thirteenth birthday, Miles joins the war against alien Spinners. As a child soldier piloting a mech robot, he's humanity's last hope. But Miles is no ordinary recruit – he's the son of Professor Riley, the missing genius behind the mechs. Now, Miles must master a rogue mech called Ironclad, find his father and save the world. Some birthday.
