Description:

Tears of Kerberos is the second book in the epic new science fiction series that chronicles humanity's first interstellar confederation, torn apart by religious strife and extremism.

In this latest book of the Star Crusades Uprising series, the religious insurgency continues to spread through the weakened colonies of the Confederacy. Spartan, now a sergeant in the Marine Corps and his armoured platoon is rushed to the defence of New Carlos on the planet of Prime. The massive city is besieged by the terrifying biomech shock troopers, its fall is imminent. As the battles rage across the continent enemy agents continue to foment revolt throughout the remaining colonies in their struggle to bring the empire crashing down.

An intelligence team on Kerberos discovers critical information on the enemy leadership and Admiral Jarvis sends a civilian ship with a crew of trusted commandos on a mission to hunt down the enemy and halt the revolt. The fate of the Centauri Confederacy lies in the hands of just a few brave men and women.

Tears of Kerberos is a classic work of realistic military science fiction set against the background of the first interstellar human empire.

Review

The Biomechs in this series rock. A cross between a man and a troll but outfitted with armor, the strength and reactions to be the ultimate bad guys. An accessible series - a good read :) - E Bridges

I had recently read the first book in the Star Crusades series (which was excellent) and I decided to read the sequel, Tears of Kerberos. I loved the action sequences. I would recommend this novel to anyone that likes sci-fi, action adventure novels. I'm looking forward to reading the next book by this author.- Lee Gimenez

There are more characters and the ending is a great setup for what I am sure will be an exciting third book. The idea of the CES armor, biomechs and the relatvely crude weapons makes for a cross between warhammer and middle ages! Plot, charcters and writing are spot on, well worth a read and light on the wallet too! - Stitch Jones
