Off Midway Station

About the book

Humanity is facing the threat of extinction, with only one man capable of making a difference.

After centuries of exploring the stars and colonizing new planets, an unknown alien force has emerged, launching brutal attacks and taking over entire star systems. Every fifty years, they appear without warning, wreaking havoc before disappearing into the darkness once more. As they approach humanity's home planets, a single defeat could mean the end of all life.

Captain Jim Garrett joined the navy to fight against this threat. However, after a dangerous mission goes wrong, Garrett is blamed, and his career is destroyed.

Now, all he commands is a half-built warship, the CNS Surprise, in the docks of Midway Station. Despite his knowledge of the ship, he is not given the opportunity to lead it into battle by the navy hierarchy.

When the aliens attack earlier than expected, Garrett realizes that every ship will be needed to defend against the enemy. With the Surprise as humanity's last hope, Garrett is given his first command and thrown into the midst of battle.

Off Midway Station is a thrilling military science fiction story filled with high-stakes space combat, gripping action, and compelling characters. A story of bravery, determination, and the fight for survival, it is a must-read for fans of Jack Campbell, David Weber, and Marko Kloos.
