If this is meant to be elsewhere, please let me know. I once read a story about a soldier who was in a horrific assault, who was then grafted into a large battle mech. As the story goes on, more flesh is taken until eventually only a spinal column and brain are left inside a gel-sack, and the machine has been upgraded to the point that it now has a super-punch that is powered by artillery shells in the shoulder. Some search engines showed alot of similar stories, but I can’t find the right one. Anyone know this tale by title?

Sorry, I don’t know the title, but I now want to read it.

Do you remember where you read it? Because to me it sounds similar to a lot of HFY stories on reddit.

I wish I did. I know it was a book, I read it as an ebook, but I can’t recall where I got it or any other helpful details like an author.

Sounds a lot like “Becoming Human” by John C. Wright. Any other details come to mind? Or titles that you’ve ruled out?
