Synopsis

When called to do battle many light years from home, the 1st Marine Interstellar Expeditionary Unit rose to the challenge -- and now thousands of enslaved humans have been freed from the alien yoke. But Earth is twenty-one years older than the home planet they originally left, and the Marines need time to retrain and readjust -- time they do not have, due to the bizzare disappearance of a detachment of their brothers- and sisters-in-arms. It is a mystery, but there is a starting point: an ancient wormhole threading through the Sirius system. Whatever waits on the other side must be confronted, with stealth, with force, and without fear -- be it an ancient enemy or a devastating new threat.The Marines are heading into the perilous unknown . . . and what transpires there could reshape the universe for millennia to come.

This book picks up "basically" where the first book in the series leaves off and continues to tell us of the marines and their actions as humans move out into space. Told in a "universe" where humans (and the races they make contact with) have "near light speed" drives. Thus they deal with the relat......more

Goodreads review by Michael on January 08, 2017

This is the second book in the Legacy Trilogy by Ian Douglas. This is another great example of Military Science Fiction. In this one the Marines are once again called upon to deploy to another star system. They have just returned from a 20 year deployment (objective time). They are sent on another d......more
