Book Description
================
Jack Campbell returns to the world of the New York Times best-selling Lost Fleet novels with a new action-packed
military science fiction series that explores the founding of the Alliance...and the men and women who fought to create
it.
Earth is no longer the center of the universe. After the invention of the faster-than-light jump drive, humanity is
rapidly establishing new colonies. But the vast distances of space mean that the old order of protection and
interstellar law offered by Earth has ceased to exist.
When a nearby world attacks, the new colony of Glenlyon turns to Robert Geary, a young former junior fleet officer, and
Mele Darcy, a onetime enlisted marine. With nothing but improvised weapons and a few volunteers, Geary and Darcy must
face down warships and armored soldiers - or die trying.
As battles rage and pirates take an increasing toll throughout the colonies, the only hope for lasting peace lies with
Carmen Ochoa, a "Red" from the anarchic world of Mars, and Lochan Nakamura, a failed politician. They have a plan: to
lay the groundwork for mutual defense that could someday grow into an alliance. But if their efforts don't succeed, the
growing power of aggressor worlds could turn regions of space founded on freedom into battlefields between the first
interstellar empires.
