War of the Exiles

Read War of the Exiles Storyline:

War of the Exiles is the third novel in the epic new ‘Mercenaries’ series that chronicles the violent struggles of humanity in a brutal and ever-changing galaxy. The Alliance watches in horror as the world of Karnak burns, along with the entire Tenth Quadrant. Fleets of ships engage in battle throughout the region, while numerous ground battles rage below. On one side are the hard-pressed Byotai settlers, outgunned and sheltering inside their fortified compounds. On the other are the Anicinàbe hordes, led by the brutal warlord Nakoma. It falls on Spartan, Khan, and Gun to halt the terror. Spartan secures the resources he needs to wage a private war on behalf of the Byotai, but he cannot use Alliance troops without sparking all out war. The only recourse is to employ mercenaries, as well as a contingent of Byotai Exiles who seek to return to Karnak. A world they still call home. The Anicinàbe unleash a final, apocalyptic effort to bring Karnak under their control. Aircraft bombard the city, while they move ground troops and siege equipment into position for the assault. For the first time, Spartan and the Exiles face the reality of defeat. A defeat that will condemn them to an early death, and the end of their civilization. War of the Exiles is a futuristic military sci-fi adventure that continues to expand the struggles of humanity in a violent and ever changing galaxy. It is a classic work of realistic military science fiction set against the aftermath of the apocalyptic Biomech War, a conflict that has left entire planets destroyed, and millions of citizens dead.Review"I actually ran out books to read and my husband had bought this book so I decided to start it. I told my self if in the first chapter I did not like it I would stop and get one of my own books. Well the first night I read 5 chapters and did not want to stop so needles to say I loves the book. The Author does a great job keeping your attention and making you not want to put the book down." - Maggie "War of the Exiles is science fiction at its best. It is a story of massive space battles with juggernaut sized space ships and warriors. The book follows Spartan, Khan, and Gun as they defend Melantias and take back Karnak. The characters are well developed, full of depth, and covered in scars from their warring past." - Hayden Griffith"As a huge fan of the Mercenaries series I picked this one up as soon as it launched on Kindle. Didn't have time to start reading during the day, so I decided to start reading just before going to bed. The problem is, before I knew it, I only had 3 hours left until I had to wake up to go to work, oops! The book really is that engaging. and you won't notice how fast time passes by while reading it. This is a worthy sequel to Lords of War and Ghost Soldiers, and continues the adventures of Spartan, Khan and Gun."  - FriendlyReader From the Inside FlapExcerpt. © Reprinted by permission.

They are beasts from the abyss.Ogimà Tarnachi was the first to turn and began to work his way back, clambering over the bodies of the dead and wounded. One reached up for help, and he pushed past, ignoring the pleas for help, or perhaps even mercy."Fall back!"Ogimà Tarnachi nearly made it until a round from one of the smaller robots hit his leg and burst below the knee. The leg was cut in half, and he fell to the ground, instantly disabled. Other rounds struck his shoulder, and he was thrown back and pinned to the wall. From there he had the perfect view of the battle as the machines ran amok, cutting down his warriors with ease.As the Anicinàbe began to flee, the enemy came nearer, and eventually directly under the bright yellow lights of the landing bay. He spotted the four large creatures as they hacked and stabbed like ancient monsters surrounded by their foes. Two laughed as they fought, their voices amplified through their speakers in their guttural alien tongue.I...must...Ogimà Tarnachi reached for a weapon and found only his secondary pistol, a small affair and unlikely to be of much use. He took aim and fired, one shot after another at the robotic warriors. As he shot, the smaller pair of massive creatures began to hack through the last of the Red Scars; those attempting to shoot back cut down by the large cannons on their shoulders. The weapons moved independently and fired at targets in a continuous slaughter, the hammer like hands of the machines snapping arms and decapitating his warriors like cattle at a slaughterhouse.Stay alive, you must...have thing....His vision began to fade, and as his life drained away, he noticed one of the warriors. It was not a machine. He could see that now. It walked like the men from Earth, but was larger and encased in powered metal armour. The head was sunk low in part of the torso. Tarnachi lifted his weapon and aimed at the machine. One of the other warriors called out a single word, a name he'd heard of, but never expected to come across. The massive warrior spun around and took aim at him.Spartan.
