Dragon Team Seven
Toby Neighbors - 2019
A century later—with the average human living three times longer than before First Contact—the Earth became overcrowded, and mankind found itself completely dependent on the technologically advanced aliens known as the Proxy
Now, three hundred years after First Contact, the Earth is so overpopulated that governments have taken control of everything. The wealthy have all they can dream of, but for most people, life has become a grueling marathon of constant work for lifetimes that stretch over two centuries in length. When Nick Nichols and his friends—fresh out of high school—strike out into the work force, they quickly find the twelve-hour shifts, six days per week of hard labor unbearable. When their first paychecks reveal a mere pittance for their toil, the friends know that something must change.
The Proxy Military Corps (PMC) is the only way to escape the crowded conditions on Earth. Every Space Marine who agrees to fight for the Proxy and completes their five-year enlistment period is given free transport to Elysium, a Goldilocks planet perfect for human colonization. But all reports of Elysium come solely from the aliens, who alone hold the key to interstellar travel. The Proxy jealously guard their technology—so without the aliens’ help, mankind is trapped in the solar system. While the only hope for a better life is by joining the PMC, enlistment carries its own hazards and uncertainties; no one who joins the PMC ever returns to Earth. Most people believe the promises of the PMC are all lies used to lure the gullible to their deaths. Elysium, they say, is just a fantasy—and fighting for the Proxy is seen as a betrayal of the human race. But for those brave enough to face the perils of the galaxy beyond our solar system, the PMC might just be their best chance for having a life worth living.

Now, thousands of years after Britannia was settled, a war is looming between the Union and Coalition. Captain Grady Henricks is given a secret mission to discover how a small scout ship’s hull survived destruction from powerful blaster beams that destroyed everything but the hull.

During his mission, Grady discovers that the scout wasn’t attacked and destroyed by Coalition warships. An alien civilization has found Britannia and it quickly becomes clear that not only is the Union threatened by the Coalition but all of Britannia is in danger of being attacked by the aliens. War breaks out and the aliens decide to strike in the aftermath. The Fight for Britannia is on and it appears that the humans living on Britannia don’t have long to live.

She saw the startup screen appear and then go dark, as the Hermit turned a nob on the keyboard. Each time it clicked, another dark screen appeared. After ten clicks, a view appeared on the display. She heard the Hermit mutter to himself, “They left the polar satellite alone.” He began moving the cursor and the view changed. An image began zooming in and she saw a city appear. The image grew larger and she recognized that it was the city she lived in just over the mountains; the Government Tower was in the center of the city and that building couldn’t be anywhere else. She suddenly saw three large shapes move out of the mountains toward the outskirts of the city. Suddenly, brilliant beams of light stabbed out of the three objects hitting the ground. Her heart started pounding harder; where those light beams hit, massive explosions erupted, and everything caught on fire. The three-large objects moved out over the city and the only thing left behind them was a fire bright enough to be seen from space. She watched the fires move out into the city and saw her parent’s neighborhood go up in massive flames. The Hermit moved the cursor again and she saw numerous star ships moving toward the monitor. The Hermit pressed a button on the wall turning on the lights in the giant facility as he jumped up out of his chair and ran across the huge room. She followed him and suddenly saw a small ship in the center of the large cavern. The Fight for Britannia is a thriller and is the latest novel from the international bestselling author Saxon Andrew.
