Science Fiction Space Opera

Peter Cochrane and his wife, Karina, have been married less than a year. And although things have been quiet in relation to the old Empire during that time, they’re about to get a lot hotter. They find themselves on a diplomatic mission to Korivar, an old ally of Pendax, a new member of the Union. But during their mission, the government of Korivar attacks Peter’s new command, Defiant, and tries to assassinate him and his wife. Peter responds the only way he can, with all the power at his disposal to protect Karina and Defiant. After defeating the government forces, Defiant is quickly called away to Skondar, where Peter’s old flame Dobrina Kierkopf and her new ship Impulse II has come under attack by the Butcher of Carinthia, Prince Arin. Defiant chases away the prince, but soon Peter finds himself racing toward the mysterious world of Altos, where he discovers an unpleasant truth about the Union’s allies, the Historians of Earth. A battle ensues over Altos between the two great fleets, but as Arin tries to escape, Peter pursues him to the ancient Imperial home world of Corant, where the two men battle over the future of humanity: Union or Empire!
