Homeworld

After years of assumed oppression by the Earth Republic, the Coalition of outlying planets have reached their breaking point. Sending a massive fleet across the galaxy, leap frogging from one Republic controlled planet after another, they scramble towards their final destination....Earth. Drake is a born killer, the perfect weapon, and a man that has grown weary of killing. A chance encounter with a pair of rookie Earth Republic soldiers, Dinah and Abigail, he begins his own journey of redemption, and quite possibly, sacrifice. Together, they hope to turn the tide of battle in a war destined to repeat itself, time after time, from one corner of the galaxy to the next. "A detailed, action-filled look at war's sacrifices at the sharp end and at war's pointless cynicism at the level of grand strategy." David Drake, Author of Hammer's Slammers
