The third installment in the "Prince Roger" series finds Roger and his marooned Bronze Battalion of marines ship wrecked on Marduk. After fighting thousands of barbarians, building deep sea ships never considered by mardukans, and crossing an ocean, the army of human marines and local mardukans have reached the continent with the only space port on the entire planet. Which may or may not be held by pirates. Can Roger, the marines, and their four armed mardukan counter parts take the space port? *shrug

The Posleen were soundly defeated on Earth and were in abject despair - the greatly reduced number of them left. A still organized group of them were made an offer they couldn't refuse - take ship from Earth to explore for the planets of their origin, hopefully there to learn where they'd went wrong. A very sound story of discovery, treachery and a joining of souls. Read this book. gmb 9-13-20

When a 60-kiloton explosion destroyed the University of Central Florida, and much of the surrounding countryside, the authorities first thought that terrorists had somehow obtained a nuclear weapon. But there was no radiation detected, and, when physicist Dr. William Weaver and Navy SEAL Command Master Chief Robert Miller were sent to investigate, they found that in the center of the destruction, where the University's physics department used to be, was an interdimensional gateway to . . . somewhere. An experiment in subatomic physics had produced a very unexpected effect. Furthermore, other gateways were appearing all over the world,and one of them immediately began disgorging demonic visitors intent on annihilating all life on Earth and replacing it with their own. Other, apparently less hostile, aliens emerged from other gateways, and informed Weaver and Miller that the demonic invaders, the name for them that humans could most easily pronounce was the Dreen, were a deadly blight across the galaxy, occupying planet after planet after wiping out all native life; and now it would be Earth's turn, unless Weaver and Miller could find a way to close the gateways. If they failed, the less belligerent aliens would face the regrettable necessity of annihilating the entire Earth to save their own worlds. . . .

"Roger Ramius Sergei Alexander Chiang MacClintock has had a really bad year. Bad enough to be the spoiled rotten fop of a prince no one wanted or trusted."--Jacket.

The Posteen War in this book is concentrated in Panama and South America, area's that we don't normally think of as being too heavily armed or having a top notch military and militia. This book disputes that and offers an interesting insight of the inhabitants. It also kicks much Posteen butt. A good read. gmb 9/10/20
