Death Skies (Fire and Rust #4)


Anthony James - 2019
    Worlds will end. Humanity’s conflict with the Raggers shows no sign of ending. The aliens have no respect for the boundaries of war and they will attack any target, civilian or military. Luckily, the Unity League is in possession of stolen intel which points to the location of three of the enemy’s critical manufacturing planets. A huge fleet carrying thousands of nuclear bombs is sent to lay waste to everything. Captain Jake Griffin is with the fleet and in charge of a new heavy cruiser called Hurricane. Any hope that the Raggers would leave their primary facilities unguarded are soon dispelled and he finds himself in the middle of a brutal engagement in the skies of a world in flames. To add to the difficulties, a completely unexpected discovery makes things much more complicated. A distress call from the surface requires a deployment of troops. It’s Lieutenant Tanner Conway who is given the job. His mission leads to a top-secret research lab where the Raggers have been working on something new and unpleasant. Conway and his squad will be tested to the limit as they try to complete their mission and escape before the worst outcome imaginable becomes a reality. The universe holds many surprises and sometimes it’s best to remain ignorant… Death Skies is a fast-paced military sci-fi shooter filled with spaceships, guns, tech and warfare. It follows on from book 3 in the Fire and Rust Series: Havoc Squad.
