Nice combat sequences, and an interesting method of introduction of characters. Also includes cat-like aliens, the usual military supply chain of command lacking in "ept", and some intriguing military hardware.

Publisher's Note
The time of the Human Confederation is coming to an end. The rule of the empire weakens daily as its forces stretch themselves beyond their limits to maintain peace and order. For the legionnaires far out in the Cumbre System, cut off from their homeworld, where survival takes precedence over politics. And when a revolution strikes up arms against them, they find they may be the last legion ever to fight in the Confederation's name.
