Synopsis

All that holds back the Galaxy’s first interplanetary war is a crew of repurposed criminals, an undercover agent, and a world-government trust fund baby. The Dogs of War.With the destruction of the planet Mukurus comes the dawn of new struggles for the Worlds Crisis Committee.The Dragons are awakened. Their Higher Order sits council at a hidden base somewhere in the Milky Way, along with faithful servants called Faders, who worship them as gods. From the shadows, they puppeteer raids to cut SkyLine supply routes. They box in human expansion, stifle the enemy.After its defeat at the hands of Drogan, the ancient life form Machaeus is scattered across the cosmos. Its spores are the subject of research on both sides of the budding Dragon war. It becomes a means of transport. It becomes a weapon. The study of these “M-Particles” inspires horrendous biological experimentation in deep cover labs across the Galaxy. Beneath it all, the will of Machaeus lurks still, forming a plot of its own.In the chaos, the Worlds Crisis Committee turns to the Dogs of War. This elite task force tackles two missions to keep the Milky Way from tearing itself apart. Open new trade routes. Find the Dragons and uproot them from the galaxy. The mission sounds simple to the Dogs’ Captain, Demitri “Demi” Alexander, until he sees the crew in action. He alone can reconcile the differences between siblings from the mines of Saturn’s Rings, the niece of a high-ranking WCC executive, and an M-Particle research specialist. They must become the Dogs of War. They are the last chance for humans to make a stand against the enclosing Dragon threat.For better or worse, the Dogs of War cross every planet in the SkyLine. They delve deep in the Chrysum wells of Neptune and the floating city of Jupiter alike, in search of the Dragons and hope to defeat them.

It is after midnight, so this may be shorter than usual. PG15 and takes an overtime day. Leap forward in time to 2350 for this space opera with dragons, when the planets are connected by the SkyLine. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.......more

Goodreads review by Douglas on August 22, 2019

Our heroes are scattered after the last book and need to rediscover themselves and each other to face the new threat. This is book three in the series. It does okay as a standalone (I have not read the earlier books), but it takes a while to come to understand the characters and the situation. Readin......more

Goodreads review by S on July 13, 2019

The blurb for this story had me intrigued, I read a lot of Richard Parry books and I was hoping to find another author that I could add to my list as a go to for some interstellar shoot’em up time of action. The concept was good what made it a challenge for me was the almost confusing writing style,......more

3.5 stars. This was only an ok read for me but I’m sure there are lots of people who would really enjoy it. It’s well written and the world building is good. There’s lots of action and the characters are quite well developed. It certainly has an interesting premise. The entity Machaeus was probably......more
