Description
Lieutenant Daniel Leary of the Republic of Cinnabar Navy commands the corvette Princess Cecile with the brilliant Signals Officer Adele Mundy at his side. But when a diplomatic mission to the far-flung planet Strymon obtains an unwanted passenger, the Princess Cecile is catapulted into a brutal world of political sabotage. With assassins, pirates and traitors on every side, Daniel, Adele and their crack crew face the strains of a voyage never before attempted. And if they succeed, they must confront an enemy who can blow an entire fleet to smithereens. In this swashbuckling adventure, death is always an option. But for Lieutenant Daniel Leary, defeat is not.
David Drake is a Vietnam vet, one of the original successful military SF series authors, and well-respected in the genre. Each book stand alone, but the series as a whole maintains a strong following-most recent release (2014) shows US Bookscan of 3,839 in HC and 2013 MM shows 9,426. Will appeal to fans of authors such as Jack Cambell, William C Dietz and Tanya Huff, all of whom are part of Titan's strong military SF list. "Drake couldn't write a bad action scene at gunpoint." Booklist.
