ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I would like to thank my most excellent partner, Lt. Colonel Dave
Grossman, for all his encouragement and enthusiasm.

Richard T. Bolgeo, Bruce R. Quayle, Ed Dunnigan, Mike Hubble,
Mike Thelen, and Rodger Olsen all made many valuable
suggestions and did yeoman service at proofreading.

And special thanks go to Dave's Ever Perfect Lieutenant, Susan, in
the hope that she will someday stop calling me "Sir."

ЧLeo



I want to take this opportunity to offer my sincere thanks and
appreciation, first and foremost, to Leo Frankowski, a wise and
experienced science fiction writer who has helped me to enter into
the world of SF. Leo has been one of my heroes as a writer, but
now he is a hero and a friend as a person. Hooah!

CHAPTER ONE
Mickolai's Homecoming
New Yugoslavia, 2205 a.d.

It had been one hell of a battle. More than half of my men had been
killed. Not just casualties. Killed. In armored space warfare,
nonfatal injuries are very rare.

The enemy had been defeated, but we had not really
accomplished our objective. We had been ordered to capture the
Solar Station that was maintaining the continued expansion of
Human Space. Instead, we had been forced to completely destroy
it.

Now, something else would have to be built to take over that job.
