A heroic Captain denied commandA battered but relentless enemyA covert operation to strike at the heart of an unstoppable foe!Captain Kyle Roberts has commanded the carrier Avalon through the most vicious battles of the war against the Terran Commonwealth-but with Avalon in for repair, his political enemies deny him a new ship.Unwilling to accept a desk, he takes command of a covert operation using a captured Commonwealth warship to strike at the very heart of their enemy, drawing away the reinforcements that could destroy the Alliance's recent gains.But the spies who planned the operation have secrets they haven't shared. Their allies have their own agendas-and the Commonwealth has surprises of its own!

Turning the TideThe Terran Commonwealth has proved a nigh-unstoppable juggernaut in its war against the smaller Castle Federation and her allies, but an almost accidental victory by Captain Kyle Roberts of the carrier Avalon has opened a chink in its armor.Desperate to change the course of a war they are rapidly losing; the Federation assembles a new forward fleet with orders to retake the systems that have fallen to the enemy.Outnumbered but on the offensive at last, Kyle Roberts must take a hastily assembled battle group back to the worlds the Alliance failed to defend. There he will live or die by the skills of his soldiers and the honor of his enemies.

Legendary… And UntestedCaptain Kyle Roberts delivered one of the Castle Federation's few victories in the early days of the war. Even losing his ship in the process didn't prevent him being elevated as the hero - the "Stellar Fox" - his country desperately needed.His status with the public demands a worthy command, and he finds himself on the bridge of the Federation's latest supercarrier and headed to the front lines of the war.But the Navy sees his promotion as a public relations stunt. His subordinates and superiors alike question his lack of experience - and enemies at the highest level of his own government manoeuvre to destroy him.As the war heats up around him, the Commonwealth may not be the greatest threat to Kyle Roberts or Avalon.

The Fleet's Old Lady - out for one last danceAvalon was the flagship of the Castle Federation in the last war, now twenty years past. The first of the deep space carriers, no other warship in the fleet holds as many honors or has recorded as many kills.No other warship in the fleet is as old.Accepting the inevitable, the Federation Space Navy has decided to refit her and send her on a tour of the frontier, showing the flag to their allies and enemies as a reminder of her glory - and then decommission her for good.But Avalon has been a backwater posting for ten years - and has problems a mere refit can't fix. The systems along her planned tour have been seeing pirates for the first time in decades, and there are rumblings of Commonwealth scouting ships all along the border.It may be Avalon's final tour - but it looks to be anything but quiet!
