Preview When Duty Calls: A Novel of the Legion of the Damned
The gripping new Legion of the Damned novel—from the national bestselling author of When All Seems Lost.
As the war with the Ramanthian continues, Captain Antonio Santana and his force of biobods and cyborgs find themselves surrounded by enemy forces, faced with annihilation at every turn.
On the home front, Santana’s love—diplomat Christine Vanderveen—copes with growing shortages, treacherous allies, and her own emotions. Yet when she meets the charismatic newly elected president of the Clone Republic, she finds herself torn between old love and new loyalty.
As Christine fights her own divided heart, light years away, Santana is in a battle for his life. And this battle may be his last…
From BooklistDuty summons two principals in the long-running Legion of the Damned series in opposite directions. Captain Antonio Santana must try to lead his Legion company out from alien encirclement and encounters a few unusual problems, such as commanding a mixed unit of purely biological and cyborg soldiers. Meanwhile, his lover, diplomat Christine Vanderveen, knows that the situation of the Clone Republic is rapidly deteriorating. The charismatic new president, who’s getting powerfully attractive to Christine, may, however, save the day. The action is as brisk as ever in a Legion yarn. Standard-issue military sf doesn’t get much better than this. --Roland Green
