Résumé du livre
The Grim War ends with what most considered a Pyrrhic victory. Mankind has won five peaceful centuries to recover and rebuild, and at the end of that time, the human spirit burns bright and the Earth flourishes. Humanity expected them, and again, the Oo'ahan Hegemony approaches. No longer in stealth, no longer with covert agents and subterfuge. This time it's a two-pronged assault. A renewed enemy within and a massive armada of invincible ships, now assembling deep in space - destination: Sol.Stanley Wozniak is head of state of the island nation of Avalon, situated in the Cape Verde Islands. Like the myth of old, Avalon provides the spark of light to kindle the dawn of New Earth. It leads humanity back from the brink and upward to the stars. It provides the starships, the FTL drive, and the men and women to take the battle into space - to meet the ancient enemy in defense of Earth, with intent to destroy him and end the endless war.Out of the Army and into the Navy, Adela Simmons has become a flight officer of exceptional skill. Small of stature and gutsy as hell. An ace with an attitude. This is her story, a twisted path through perdition. One that brings her face to face with the most powerful of the enemy - takes her far from Earth, and back to the ancient roots of humanity. To a new world, with a new future. There's no looking back.
