You Should Never Speak Truth To Power…
The Galactic Empire is dying and chaos and anarchy are breaking out
everywhere. After a disastrous mission against terrorists on Earth itself,
Captain Edward Stalker of the Terran Marine Corps makes the mistake of
speaking truth to power, telling one of the most powerful men in the Empire a
few home truths. As a result, Captain Stalker and his men are unceremoniously
exiled to Avalon, a world right on the Rim of the Empire. It should have been
an easy posting…
Well, apart from the bandits infesting the countryside, an insurgency that
threatens to topple the Empire’s loose control over Avalon, and a corrupt
civil government more interested in what it can extort from the population
than fighting a war. The Marines rapidly find themselves caught up in a
whirlwind of political and economic chaos, fighting to preserve Avalon before
the competing factions tear the world apart. They’re Marines; if anyone can do
it, they can.
The battle to save the Empire starts here.
