The race has been run, and now comes a new struggle.

Private Avery Shetty always saw war as horrific, but the life of the prisoner proves even worse. Torture, abuse, terror—the Oranian conquerors have no humanity. Worse, they may not even be the greatest threat.

As bad as things are on Ferekon, the ripples of the failed military campaign spread throughout the Kedraalian Republic. While Shetty and his comrades suffer, violence and instability undermine the very reason they fight.

With support for the Marines collapsing, Shetty's only hope for survival is himself.

The vast, action-packed tale of military science fiction and space opera continues in Breakout, book three in The Chronicle of the Final Light series.
