by Timothy Zahn, David Weber, Tom Pope
THE BEST IN MILITARY SCIENCE FICTION SPACE OPERA FROM DAVID WEBER AND TIMOTHY ZAHN AND HONORVERSE EXPERT THOMAS POPE
To weather the storm . . .
The youthful Star Kingdom of Manticore is only a single, tiny star nation on the fringe of the explored galaxy. It has no Army, only a tiny Navy, and no merchant marine at all. By any interstellar measure, it is virtually insignificant.
Despite which, it has somehow acquired a very significant enemy. One which has engineered major attacks upon its territory. One which has worked long and hard to destabilize any alliances that might aid the Star Kingdom in its defense. And one which has struck from the shadows, weaving webs of secrecy and deception to conceal its identity, its resources, or even the reason behind its attacks.
