Octavia Abandon — Michael Mounts

Should the mirror look back, no one likes what they will see. Major Octavia and her Soldier Girls are dropped into a warzone with little idea where to point their guns. Do they choose the ally with the best weapons, or the underdog, unjustifiably attacked, become subject to indiscriminate slaughter? Supplies and clear orders are in short supply. Everyone must figure out for themselves what they are to do. The game is being played on many levels, and the people in charge are still figuring out how they want to play their pieces. The outcome will be deadly for everyone, and like most hazardous operations, the rank and file are being left out in the cold. The Fourth Novel of the Soldier Girls finds them eating well, fighting hard, bundling up against the storm, and facing challengers they never imagined. Will they be able to endure the onslaught of both mind and body? Time will tell, and the only sure thing is pain will visit all.
