Jimmy Go is lost in a hell he can't escape. Slave to a job he hates, Jimmy lives, eats, and writhes in the factory-sponsored void his life has fallen into. A cracking cog in a mindless, paranoid war machine, Jimmy no longer remembers who he is, why he's there-or why someone's left him a warning: You don't belong here, Little Man Go. Each day before work, Jimmy stares out his window watching Hat, Cloak, and Umbrella Warriors defend his home of Wren from marauding Clans and Gangs. It's a war that has stretched for seventy years. Like his own life, it feels pointless. All that's forgotten, however, when a new girl shows up for work and Jimmy finds himself lost once again: in her light-brown hair, in her hazel eyes-in her sudden interest in him. But the new girl has a secret. She and her friends are there on a mission: to yank Jimmy from his stupor and awaken him to who he really is, why he has to fight, and what's waiting for him beyond the Great Divide. To get there, they'll have to battle a deadly new army of mindless assassins-and Little Man Go will learn it's he alone who can lead them home.
