Soldier of the Legion: Author's Edition (The Soldier of the Legion Series)

By Marshall S. Thomas

He joined the Legion. He survived training on Planet Hell. He thought he'd seen it all. He was wrong. His Legion designation is Beta 3, warname Thinker. This will be his first real mission, the first mission for all the members of Beta squad-young men and women given immortality but trained to die for the cause of freedom. They are going into the deep Outvac to investigate the remote planet Andrion 2. What they find could start a war, they all know that, but what they don't know will take every ounce of training to survive.
