Unfortunately his bastard of a father, the same one that left his mother to die in poverty and him to run wild on the streets took an interest. Seeing him sitting on the bench when his case went to court was a shock. But not as big a shock as being sentenced to ten years in the Imperial Navy.
That's just the first of Chase's nasty surprises as he finds himself among the Emperor's Own - The Wolfhounds. How, and why, his bastard father sent him there is a secret that only the base AI knows the answer to. When that same AI decides to use Chase to fulfill its own orders, Chase soon finds himself in a situation where if he doesn't die honorably in combat due to the enemy, his own side will arrange those circumstances for him.
Unfortunately for everyone involved, Chase is proving to be just as tough of a bastard as the man who sent him there.
No!!!!!!!! Sept 2023. Mannnnnn. I didn’t realize this was a new release, I try to hold off to ensure I can read back to back.
ReplyDeleteGreat book, kind a similar theme as with Summers End. Hope you don’t make us wait long for the sequels.
ReplyDeleteWhat's funny is the first quarter of this book was written several years ago, then put on a shelf as I didn't think it would sell back then. It wasn't until I'd picked it back up that I realized there were two things from it I'd used in Summer's End. The first was the idea that the protagonist had been in a street gang (though he was no where near as nasty as Dave Walker) the second, you can probably figure out :-)
