Publisher Description

Sarah Connor and her son, John, know the grim tomorrow that awaits their species if the Cyberdyne Corporation gets their Skynet system on-line. Targeted for annihilation because of their future destinies, the Connors have already survived two separate attempts on their lives by advanced Terminator killing machines. But enough T-800 detritus remains from their last life-and-death struggle to enable Cyberdyne to recover. The nightmare is back on track. And the most fearsome and relentless cyborg weapon of all has been dispatched through time to ensure Skynet's victory: a machine so like its human prey that detection is virtually impossible. Considered a dangerous terrorist by the U.S. government and hiding out in Paraguay, Sarah sees another T-800 similar to the cybernetic killer from whom she once narrowly escaped. But while his form and features will eventually be duplicated on many Terminator units, former counterterrorism operative Dieter von Rossback is very much a man, irresistibly drawn to the puzzling, beautiful, deadly serious Sarah Connor and her brilliant teenage son. And once Sarah reveals her dark history and awakens him to the impending possible extermination of all human life, Dieter is drawn to her revolution as well. But the machine masters of the near future have ensured that they will not be thwarted again. A new breed of enforcer, on designed to effortlessly infiltrate the ranks of the enemy, has been firmly entrenched in the uppermost level of Cyberdyne Corporation. With a vengeance-seeking FBI agent on a tight leash and the inexhaustible resources of Cyberdyne to support the hunt for the Connors and their allies, the 1-950 Infiltrator is relentless, programmed to pursue Skynet's goal until all targets are dead. But unlike its technological predecessors, the Infiltrator understands how humans think and feel...and she truly enjoys the blood and the chase. Exploding out of the long shadows cast by Terminator 2: Judgement Day—the cinematic action masterwork that rocked the world-T2: Infiltrator marks a bold new beginning in the stunning apocalyptic epic that has already become a legend.

“7/9 - I'm a big fan of all the Terminator movies (I never really understood the hate directed towards T3 or 4, I thought they were great) and always wanted to know more about what happened to Miles' family after his death. When I first heard of T3 I was hoping it would go on straight from where T2 left off and was disappointed when it really wasn't mentioned. The prologue of T2: Infiltrator opens with Tarissa and her kids in a motel waiting for Miles' return from Cyberdyne, so I'm immediately excited to get reading. 9/9 - Fantastic four and a half to five stars. There were a few little weirdnesses or tongue-in-cheek jokes (that were just a little too twee) for fans of the movie, and a couple of instances of typos that I noticed, but other than that I couldn't find anything to complain about with this 'sequel'. The characterisation of John and Sarah was perfect and the plot was an exciting build up of tension leading to the climatic action scene at the end. Infiltrator had nothing quite so amazing as the image of 'Uncle Bob' and John on the Harley jumping into the flood overflow channel, but I would've liked to have been able to see Sarah pulling the 88mm out of the floor and firing it out the window at the terminator - that would have been pretty spectacular. I'm hoping my library has the second book in the series available, in some shape or form, immediately, because I'm feeling the need for more Terminator action. On the 'reading on the laptop so therefore have the ability to make multiple updates' front...I didn't find it any better/easier/funner than simply making them part of my review, but I've tried it now so I can now say from experience which method works best for me and will go back to my old method with the next book whether it's online or made of paper.”
