Lieutenant Xavier Moran, USMC, better known as "X" is out of the Afghanistan battlefield-his first reprieve in over sixty days. As he arrives at the sprawling airbase at Bagram with nothing more than a pack, a weapon, and a reputation for getting things done, he secretly wishes he was back in the fight, where life is helter-skelter. When he is assigned a tough mission by Colonel Fran Matthews, X has no idea he is about to become immersed in the rampant corruption that surrounds the Afghan war. Assigned to assume command of an isolated marine rifle company in disarray, X faces many challenges, including bringing casualties in line with operations, raising the marine's morale, and facing off with the current battalion commander. As he heads to Kotjay to begin his mission, X is apprehensive. He must succeed; failure could mean the end of his career-or the end of his life. In this action-packed military tale, X bravely stands up to the entrenched powers in Afghanistan. Caught between doing what is right and doing what is expected, he makes powerful enemies intent on ensuring his failure. Only time will tell if they will be successful.

The Exxar Chronicles: The Erayan (Volume 1) Review

Buy From Amazon.com

No one wanted another war. Starbase Exxar-One was supposed to be a neutral meeting ground for representatives of the Chrisarii Alliance and the Interstellar Federation of Peace; a place to maintain the fragile peace, but it's now rife with conflict. Commodore Marcus Gabriel of the EarthCorps Navy doesn't want the position of commanding officer. He lost his father and too many fellow soldiers to the war's frontlines. His Chrisarii EXO, Major Kralin Saveck, has his own reasons for despising his assignment. Neither of them is prepared for the conflict that lies ahead. A rebel group of Chrisarii are attacking Exxar-One with raiders that are equipped with suspiciously advanced offensive technology. Queyn Vorik, the Chrisarii ambassador who was instrumental in Exxar-One's creation, is brutally murdered seven days after arriving on the station. All evidence points to a human suspect. Meanwhile, the Jha'Drok lord emperor is on his deathbed, and it's up to his spoiled, conniving and ruthlessly ambitious son to follow through on his father's plans to invade and conquer the Federation. The whole operation just might succeed as long as everyone can stay distracted by the Chrisarii situation. And then there's the unidentified alien object that's drifted into sensor range of a Federation listening post in the Ontaar sector, only a few light years from Exxar-One. Commander Decev, chief science officer, takes a team with her to investigate and they all disappear. Political intrigue. Religious terrorism. Galactic warfare. Exploration of the unknown. It's business as usual for the crew of Exxar-One.
