Unlawful Orders
An action-packed new military sci-fi from bestseller Rick Partlow filled with heroes you can't help bit root for!
The fleet expected a scapegoat. They got a renegade.
Captain of the ICA cruiser Mistral, Cole Ransom is a man with a checkered past and a crew of misfits held together by loyalty and stolen parts. He's made a career bending the rules.
And after being blamed for an incident that nearly restarted a galactic war, he's used to being the Fleet’s favorite scapegoat.
But when a routine investigation leads Cole to stumble upon a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of the United Systems Senate, everything changes.
He's the only thing standing between a rogue supersoldier program built from illegal human augmentation and a cyborg army.
Hunted across outlaw worlds and outgunned at every turn, Cole must decide how far he's willing to go—and what he's willing to sacrifice—to stop a war no one is ready for.
Experience the start of the next military science fiction series from Rick Partlow, filled with the high-octane space fleet combat, realistic and gritty military battles, explosive space marine action, and heroes you can't help but root for. This is military Sci-Fi the way it's meant to be!
Perfect for fans of JN Chaney, Jeffery H. Haskell, Daniel Gibbs, and David Weber!
