A Hymn Before Battle

Description

WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE... With the Earth in the path of the rapacious Posleen, the peaceful and friendly races of the Galactic Federation offer their resources to help the backward Terrans -- for a price. Humanity now has three worlds to defend. As Earth's armies rush into battle and special operations units scout alien worlds, the humans begin to learn a valuable lesson: You can protect yourself from your enemies, but may the Lord save you from your allies. by John Ringo......Page 1 Living with a writer is a lesser Circle of Hell.......Page 3 Prologue......Page 4 Norcross, GA Sol III1447 EDT March 16, 2001 ad......Page 6 Ft.
