The Last Marines by Lawrence N. Oliver
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 419 KB
Overview: Ben Corbin and Sam Garrett, former Marines under the old Colonial Government had rotated out of the corps after being replaced by robots and drones. They’d gone into business together towing derelict vessels and space junk out of the shipping lanes around Mars.
Business was good but a couple of malfunctioning service robots had caused them to return to Earth for replacements. The freighter they’d booked passage on was attacked by aliens. As far as humans had known at the time aliens didn’t exist. The aliens slaughtered and fed on the crew and passengers. Only Corbin and Garrett managed to hold their own until they could hide themselves in stasis pods.
200 years later. Earth and her colonies, governed by the Commonwealth of Nations, are at war with a race of aliens known as the Nineteenth. Not with the Gar Rei Jhi who had attacked Corbin and Garrett so many years past. That war had been fought and humans lost. This was a new alien threat whose origins and motives are unknown.
What information humans have on this new enemy comes from the uneasy alliance with Gar Rei Jhi who’ve been fighting an even longer war with the Nineteenth. Though long ago, Corbin and Garrett’s history with the Gar Rei Jhi hasn’t been forgotten. They are to be ambassadors serving at the pleasure of the same aliens that attacked them. That is if their own people or the damn robots don’t kill them first.
