THE FINAL ENGAGEMENT... The minions of Maximilian Liao are about to deliver a crippling blow to the forces of Prince Hanse Davion-discovering a way to use Hanse's own technology against him. Half a galaxy away, assassins stalk Hanse's wife, Melissa Steiner, and her mother, Archon Katrina Steiner, in the passageways of their own palace. Invasion is imminent. The only 'Mech force capable of stopping that invasion-the Kell Hounds mercenary unit-is trapped in a game of search and destroy with the most fearsome Kurita unit ever created. Even if they come back in time...how many would make it? In a world where ten-meter-tall war machines are the soul of battle, assassins are state policy, and a spy's loyalty is always for sale, the only thing certain is death. Who can you trust? And in the bitter end, how will you be betrayed?
Coupe is the 3rd book of the Warrior Trilogy and finishes everything up in the 3027 universe. All the ends are tied here as you finally get to see Morgan Hasek-Davion in action. One of the great things of these books is the minor characters that get good face time. The likes of Andy Redburn throughout the series gives the reader a feel for the men in the trenches while still able to give the overall political view from the Successor Lords. The end of the 4th Succession War is an excellent read and is very highly recommended.

For anyone who has not read this book. They should start with the first book of the series. The first two books lead up to what is a really explosive ending in this book.
this series got me addicted to the battletech universe.

This book ties up the ends of the 4th succession war, Quintus Allard (Kai Allard Liao's father) triumphant return to Federated Suns and more. In my opinion, this series is better than the Kerensky series because the plots are better. There is no shortage of action with scenes from Morgan Kell vs Yorinaga Kurita (founder of Genyosha Regiments), Andrew Redburn (now a battalion commander in 1st Kathil Uhlans) during 4th succession war, the traitor Michael Hasek-Davion (Morgan Hasek's father). I was particularly moved by the sacrificial action of Patrick Kell in saving Melissa Steiner. This series is a must read for all Battletech funs. You will find this at least in par, if not better, than Grave Convenent (Book 2 of Twilight of the Clans).
