Cosmic Strife: Assault

By Steve Gavin

Book Overview

The Ragner family name carries weight amongst the United Global Navy. Colyn Ragner had been a hero of the war 15 years ago when he assisted in an attempt to defend the alien world of Casbaria from the evil Luyons. The humans were unsuccessful in fighting off the invaders and Casbaria was lost. The human fleet was able to escape back to Earth, at the heroic expense of Colyn sacrificing his life to make this possible. Colyn's children are now all grown up and in positions to assist the human plight in an upcoming rematch. Aalin is the eldest Ragner and a senator who is conflicted about re-entering a bloody battle. She is ambitious and morally driven but her anti-war stance is seen as a hinderance to some of her opposing senators, one of which is fully driven to stopping her efforts at all costs. Will she yield her position or hold her ground amidst a growing pro-war sentiment. Nolan is the middle sibling who is looking to pave his own way through the military ranks while at the same time battling peers who would otherwise see his career fail due to his popular family name. Assigned to the legendary Triton battleship Hyperion , he is immediately met with a superior who wishes to see him fail because of his lineage. Vance is the youngest Ragner who chose to follow in his father's footsteps and become an elite fighter pilot for the Navy. Vance's rebellious nature inside the cockpit gets him into trouble and puts his career into jeopardy even before it begins. Will he be sidelined for the biggest fight that humanity has ever faced or will his skillset help win the day for the outgunned Earth Navy. As the humans plan an attack to go back and liberate Casbaria from the Luyons from its capture many years ago, the seemingly distant threat may be looming much closer than anyone realizes. There is an additional unknown malicious force dead set on hindering the Ragner family as they try to combat their individual plights. Follow the events of this cosmic strife as the characters fight for human existence against a power hungry Luyon race headed by a ruthless and fear inducing leader. Who will strike first? The fate of all humanity hangs in the balance.
