About the book
The Galactics arrived with their battle fleet in 2052. Instead of being destroyed by hell burners, Earth became part of a vast empire that covered the Milky Way. Our most valuable commodity is our notorious mercenary legions, elite soldiers that we offer to the highest alien bidder.
In the fourth installment of the series, James McGill is in line for a promotion. Not everyone is pleased with this, and McGill must demonstrate he deserves his new rank. Sent to a distant, alien planet beyond the Galactic Empire's borders, he becomes entangled in warfare and political scheming. Earth grows in power, the Cephalopod Kingdom sends ships to thwart us, and a major plot unfolds within the highest echelons of the Hegemony military.
In Machine World, McGill encounters a completely alien form of life, Galactic prosecution, and swarms of relentless squid soldiers. He fights and falls amidst the crumbling remnants of the empire, a man of exceptional integrity at the beginning of humanity's resurgence.
