关于此电子书

The grand experiment of a democratic Commonwealth of Star Nations has failed. With colony after colony leaving the Commonwealth, Earth finds itself in desperate straits as ecological disaster and mass starvation looms in the near future. The collapse of the Commonwealth means there’s now a power vacuum but no shortage of ruthless egos looking to fill that vacuum. Will it be the Republic of Corona, the most prosperous and populous colony world or a resurgent Earth under a messianic leader or perhaps a power-hungry interstellar corporation? With stakes this high, political intrigue, backstabbing and betrayal are par for the course. Empire Dawn is the first of a two-book series that looks at how empires rise. For fans of military SF. Book Two (Empire Ascendant) can be pre-ordered now for publication in early December 2018.


Excerpt:


Stoner let out a sigh of relief when 007 cleared the atmosphere. The onboard radar still wasn’t showing any bogies, but the more powerful orbiting radars’ data was being relayed to all defense boats. A warble tone in his helmet’s speakers notified him that the Squadron’s lead boat had transmitted the tactical orders. Stoner read the orders on his console’s small screen and whistled in surprise.


“What is it?” asked Mbutu.


“Firing orders. We fire all our birds at the same time at the same target.”


Mbutu nodded. “Makes sense if we want to overwhelm their defensive lasers.”


Stoner said nothing. It did make sense, but he had a bad feeling about it for some reason.
