First up is John Van Stry with the sixth book in his Wolfhounds series, End Game
As always, click on the cover for the Amazon link!
The blurb-
The fight has been a long one and a hard one with many unseen events along the way. The end however is here. The last battle of the war. The most important battle of the war. Soon they will leave for Cor Imperii, the capital of the empire. Soon they will launch a head-on attack against Speaker Phillip T Neill of the Democratic People’s Republic of Solaria. Soon Chase will do what he swore to do: Kill Neill, personally, tear down the DPRS, abolish the Secret Police, the Loyalty Officers, and re-establish the Empire of Solaria.
There’s just one last battle to fight to win the war.
Or is it? The last battle that is. Neill has his doomsday weapon, out there, somewhere, being developed in secret. It could kill billions, maybe more. Whole planets could be wiped out if it’s not found and stopped before it can be finished, before it can be used.
There’s also other players about. Other star kingdoms who have seen the inevitable decline that Neill and his government started when they lost access to the Tomb after killing off the prior emperor. In a hope to survive, or perhaps just seeing the state of the decaying Democratic People’s Republic, they’ve decided that some of those planets are ripe for the taking.
Which means that this battle may still have a few more rounds left in it before the Wolfhounds can, once and for all, return home.
Next is Pam Uphoff with the 18th novel in her Chronicles of the Fall series, Outer Tiers
The blurb-
Konstantin Aslanov is back!
And posted to an Outer Tier World with an orphaned guardian’s store–the official name of the oft rumored “Doomsday Cubes” so popular in cheesy spy movies.
He hadn’t counted on children in danger, buying a hundred race horses, or running head on into a corrupt colony government. But with newly acquired sidekicks, it’s full speed ahead to save an entire World as Plagues and Invasions hit the entirety of the Three Part Alliance!
Last but certainly not least, Josh Amos with his second book in the Orphan series, The Orphan’s Autumn
The blurb-
In “The Orphan, The Marine, and the Mastiff” Josh Amos introduced us to Brother, a broken Marine war fighter, and Mei Mei, his eight year old half sister as they struggle to overcome their respective traumas and form a family of choice.
In “The Orphan’s Autumn” we find Brother and Mei Mei are continuing to bond together as an odd couple, and are off to a shaky but determined start as they struggle to get on with making the best lives that they can for themselves. They are aided by the growing English Mastiff puppy Boudicca, because as Brother says “Little kids need dogs.”
Unfortunately for the odd couple siblings, dark forces are working to take Mei Mei away from Brother and Boudicca. Brother finds that all of this training and experience at war, are mostly inapplicable to his current challenge. To save his sister, Brother will have to find new ways to cope with his war injuries and his PTSD as he struggles to thwart the looming threat to his new family.
Highly recommend all three of these!!!
