Only Spartan and his elite legions of mercenaries and robot soldiers can stop the Interstellar Empire and its warrior cults. War has come, and the while the Alliance is not ready for it, Spartan will not back down from a fight, no matter the odds.

The Star Empire is on the move, and sends its vast armadas to the border of the Alliance. A single cataclysmic naval engagement that will decide the fate of billions. It is a sudden and brilliant move, and leaves the Alliance’s finest warriors far from the final battle. There is nothing Spartan will not sacrifice to succeed, because he knows that only he and his forces can end this war. Little does he know that this terrible enemy has one final trick up its sleeve, one deadly ruse that will change the fate of billions forever.
