Shaker

This could happen to anyone. Maybe it already has.

SHAKER chronicles the odyssey of Michael Taylor, an unassuming English teacher who wakes up to find himself a prisoner on a mysterious ship with more than forty strangers. Neither he nor his companions have any recollection of how they got there. Those who survive the voyage soon learn that their lives will be forever changed. Taylor struggles to endure against lethal enemies and his own internal conflicts in a distant alien world that has been ravaged by decades of warfare. This story details his saga and transformation from an ordinary man into the legendary warrior known as SHAKER.

His saga is an allegorical tale about slave soldiers trying to survive in an unstable world fraught with corruption and rebellion.
