Breakthrough — David Drake

Pledged to protect us all

World-crushing war rages between the human/alien Alliance and the predatory Khalians. Courageous soldiers from all corners of the galaxy, the Alliance Fleet retaliates with blinding force--reclaiming conquered worlds, repelling invasions, destroying enemy strongholds. But a ruthless Khalian counterattack slows the Fleet's advance to a mutually slaughterous stalemate. Only a decisive victory can break the deadlock. For the men and women of the Fleet, it's now or never...do or die.
