Synopsis

Marooned on a deadly alternate Earth, Colonel Lewis Cayce and his soldiers find themselves outnumbered and outclassed in this riveting new adventure set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Destroyermen series.

After being stranded on a very different and more perilous Earth, Colonel Lewis Cayce led his small army of displaced Americans, natives of the Yucatán, and Jaguar Warriors to defeat the biggest host the Dominion general Agon could assemble. Most unexpectedly, General Agon came to recognize the inherent evil of the Dominion and its depraved Blood Priests and turned on his former leaders.

Awkwardly at first, Lewis Cayce and Agon join forces to press their common enemy back toward the dark heart of the Dominion in the Great Valley of Mexico. But more Dominion troops have been drawn from the west to stop the Allied march on the Holy City, and a grueling race has begun. Worse, the Gran Cruzada—a vast Dom army that was marching on the far Californias to eject yet another heretic foe—might’ve already been recalled to face Cayce’s soldiers.

Time has become more precious than ever, and before Lewis Cayce can even try to implement his plan for total victory, he and his force must brave their greatest challenge yet—a brutal fight against a larger, better-trained army whose commander has a gift for strategy to rival Cayce’s own. The struggle to keep all his soldiers alive, new friends and old comrades alike, will test Cayce like never before, and, win or lose, nothing will be the same.

Up all night reading it No matter how hard I tried to pace myself, I couldn't stop. Almost 10 years ago I stumbled onto Taylor Anderson's first novel "Into the Storm". He has created an intricate and intriguing alternate Earth with the Grik, Dominion, Empire, and the New United States in 1847. The int......more

Goodreads review by Catherine on October 11, 2024

I borrowed this from the Sherwood Regional Library of Fairfax County, VA. It was on the "Just in!" shelf and caught my eye. Alternate Earth where prehistoric animals, especially dinosaurs, and humans co-exist in the Mexican wilderness?! Yes, please! However, after over 50 pages in, there just aren't......more

Goodreads review by Kevin on October 19, 2023

I quite enjoyed this foray into the Destroyman universe, and peeling back some of the critical events of the NUS and the Dominion. I still have lots of questions as to how the events of the mid 1800s result in the disposition seen in 1940, and the villains (Blood Priests) are comically over the top......more
