1. What happens when genetic engineering
takes warfare to the next level?
SYNBAT= SYNthetical BATtle

2. Kirkus Reviews. “Action packed
entertainment. An atavistic milieu
plausibly conjured up by Mayer.”

3. High Praise for SYNBAT
Publishers Weekly. “Mayer keeps story and characters firmly
under control. The venal motives of the scientists and military
bureaucracy are tellingly contrasted with the idealism of the
soldiers—a treat for military fiction readers.”
Library Journal: “This book will appeal to a variety of horror
and military fiction readers. Recommended!”
Assembly Magazine (Assoc of Graduate, West Point): “Bob
Mayer has stretched the limits of the military action novel as
this is also a gripping detective story and an intriguing science
fiction thriller. Mayer brings an accurate depiction of military
life to this book which greatly enhances its credibility.”
Written by a New York Times Bestselling Author,
West Point Graduate and Green Beret.

4. What if a scientific experiment merging humans with
animals to make the perfect soldier goes awry?
Now it’s up to Dave Riley and his A-Team to
stop them before they breed out of control.

5. In the middle of the night, in the backwoods of
Kentucky, the alarms sound at a secret BioTech
Engineering Research Facility funded by the
Pentagon’s secure Black Funds.

6. The Synbats have broken out.
Synbat stands for synthetic battle forms, a genetically
engineered soldier. A cross between large primate and
a human.
They’re designed to do two things: KILL.
And procreate rapidly.

7. Dave Riley and his Green Beret Team are called in to find
and quietly eliminate the Synbats.

8. Unfortunately, Dave Riley and his A-Team aren’t fully
briefed.
And nothing prepares them for what awaits in the
forests of Tennessee.

9. Some Synbats infiltrate onto a trailer going to
Chicago, leaving a trail of death in their wake.
In the abandoned labyrinth tunnel systems
underneath Chicago, they find the perfect lair to
reproduce and form an army.

10. Dave Riley is hot on their trail. Hunting them down
while keeping a lid on the truth.
But he’s running a step behind.

11. I wrote The Green Berets: Synbat while living in Clarksville, TN, outside of
Ft. Campbell, KY. Home of the 101st Airborne, the 5th Special Forces
Group, and Task Force 160 (the Nightstalkers)
The idea is my first foray mixing some science elements into my thrillers.
The research was fascinating and science is now proving that the concept
is not only feasible, I have no doubt in some dark lab, somewhere, they are
making . . . ..
