There is one thing worse than death. It's coming back to die again and again. When the alien Mimic invasion occurred, Keiji Kiriya was just one of many recruits who was forced into a suit of battle armor and sent to his death. Keiji dies on the battlefield and finds himself resurrected every morning to fight and die again and again. On the 158th time, he sees something different, something out of place - a female soldier known as the Steel Bitch. Will it be an opportunity for Keiji to get out of this trap or will it lead to his final death? Based on this novel, a film will be made in 2014 starring Tom Cruise called Edge of Tomorrow.
