Built up a short story, this trilogy beginning combines ingredients of military science fiction and dark fantasy. In the very near future, Earth is aimed for colonization by a galactic conglomerate known as the Hegemony. Humanity has been written down as bloody-minded, disposable savages. When the Hegemony’s collaborators, the loyal Shongairi, come out to suppress Earth, the resistance is far from anything they had ever thought, particularly when vampires come along to help the humans. Weber brings off this vanity in daring style with a focus on military-powered action that will exalt fans of his Honor Harrington series, and he keeps the pedal to the metal right up to the almost incredible conclusion.
