Epic space battles, ground warfare, destructive tech and aliens you’d definitely want to put a gauss slug into. The first three books in the Obsidiar Fleet series is now available in this omnibus. The Vraxar have come. Their advance fleet is vast and they are definitely not friendly. Their aim isn’t to settle and conquer, simply to bolster their army with the species they defeat before they move on. Now it’s humanity’s turn. Join a cast of the Space Corps’ finest as they come together to ensure the human Confederation will not be just another stepping-stone for the murderous Vraxar. Captain Charlie Blake is one of the best spaceship pilots in the Space Corps, but skill alone won’t defeat the enemy Neutralisers. He’s going to require the new, top-secret tech waiting under the Tillos military base to even things up. Lieutenant Eric McKinney is tough and angry. The alien invaders are on his turf and he wants them gone. Unfortunately, his opponents are vastly superior in numbers and they don’t care if they live or die. Fleet Admiral John Nathan Duggan – the most experienced man in the entire Space Corps. The weight of a hundred billion human souls is upon his shoulders. Without his guidance, everyone will perish. Nothing about this is going to be easy… In this volume, plenty of honest, kick-back-and-enjoy alien warfare. Including: 1. Negation Force 2. Inferno Sphere 3.
