Mutiny - Space: Above and Beyond #3 (Easton Royce)


Mutiny - Space: Above and Beyond #3
Easton Royce

Blurb: The year is 2063. Earth's first space settlement has just been demolished by an Alien army so violent and blood-thirsty it left almost nothing in its wake. And now it's up to the forces of Earth to defend the planet and save all of mankind... Meet the 58th Marine Squadron trained for war in SPACE.

When Lieutenant Cooper Hawkes and the rest of the 58th Squadron are rescued from a distant space port by a passing freighter, they quickly discover what special cargo the ship is hauling: thousands of tanks of In-Vitros. And one of those In-Vitros is Cooper's 'sister' - a being created from his gene pool.

Finding a relative is something Cooper has always wanted - but before he can start his family reunion, the ship is damaged by enemy fire. In order to save the humans on board, the captain is forced to shut down power to the cargo bay - even though that means destroying all of the unborn In-Vitros.

Lieutenant Hawkes refuses to give up his sister without a fight. But is he angry enough to start a space mutiny?

Blurb: The year is 2063. Earth's first space settlement has just been demolished by an Alien army so violent and blood-thirsty it left almost nothing in its wake. And now it's up to the forces of Earth to defend the planet and save all of mankind... Meet the 58th Marine Squadron trained for war in SPACE.

Nathan West: Convinced that his girlfriend is being held captive by the Aliens, Nathan is determined to get into space any way he can...even if it means joining the Marine Space Cavalry.

Shane Vansen: She once vowed to do anything to avenge her parents' death. And now she might just get her chance.

Cooper Hawkes: Born at age 18, Cooper is an In-Vitro, a futuristic test-tube human grown in a tank. Constantly in trouble, Cooper can't seem to stay out of jail - until a new law sentences him to a different sort of imprisonment: the Marines.

Three strangers, thrown together by fate. As a team, they will forever change the course of human history...
