NOTES

"The Allies and the Empire of New Britain Isles now stand united against the attacks of both the savage Grik and the tenacious Japanese. But Designated Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces Matt Reddy has a new foe to contend with: the Holy Dominion, a warped mixture of human cultures whose lust for power overshadows even the Grik's. Only a risky naval engagement and a desperate land battle can preserve freedom and prevent swift conquest by the Dominion. As open war rages across half the known world, more Japanese ships come through the time-space maelstrom the Americans call the Squall. One is a "Hell Ship" carrying survivors of encounters with Imperial Japan, which is growing even more ruthless in the face of looming defeat. Escorting it is a new state-of-the-art destroyer, the officers of which don't adhere to any rules of war. Fighting a desperate battle against the Dominion while on another front his friends face annihilation by the Grik, Reddy is plunged into a firestorm of loyalty, betrayal, and sacrifice. But nothing he endures can prepare him for a devastating new Grik weapon--a weapon that could destroy the Allies and Empire once and for all..."--
