The Battle of Devastation Reef
If he survives, hell just may freeze over.
The savage Hammer
Worlds are not only near invincible but almost certain to win their war
to crush the Federated Worlds and control humanspace – unless the Feds
can find and destroy their secret antimatter warhead facility.
Only
dreadnoughts, the lone Federated ships able to withstand antimatter
missile attacks, can do the job, and only Lieutenant Michael Helfort
has the skill to lead them. But skill may not be enough, because
Helfort is more than the newly appointed captain: He’s a hero, and this
means that his own senior officers want him to fail – and that the
enemy’s kingpin wants him dead.
Helfort’s early victories merely
intensify everyone’s determination. No action is too low, no price too
high, to bring him down – with treachery, or betrayal, or an offer he
can’t refuse, even if it means selling out his own side.
