Admiral Velal leads her Space Marines in desperate clashes against hostile alien powers, fighting to protect a fleet of vulnerable refugees and keep her people alive.

For the brave Spartacus Division…
…every inch of victory was hell.
Could the Pharaonis finally fall?

After the triumphs of the Battles of the Forts, with Serenea now firmly under Allied control, Brigadier General Spartacus Varinius set his sights upon the Pharaonis home world. The Allies used a tactic reminiscent of Earth’s Second World War—however, instead of island hopping, they began planet-hopping, bypassing Pharaonis strongholds as they zeroed in on the planet Eurysa.

Was the Republic in reach of final victory?

Admiral Ripley Lee Willis had just received his second admiral’s star and additional reinforcements. In a daring maneuver that might alter the course of the war, he struck at the heart of the Zodark Empire. That risk might have cost him his fleet and the command he had worked toward his entire career.

Would Ripley’s fleet outwit his Zodark counterpart?

As the Humtars considered joining the Allies, an old foe emerged from the abyss, sending shivers down their spines.

They thought they had eradicated this evil long ago.

You’ll love this eleventh installment of the epic Rise of the Republic military sci-fi thriller series because the epic battles will make you feel like you are part of the action.
