The Iron Service

Orbital Strike Command: They are Elite, Deadly, Loyal. But to the many who live under the Gnostic Empire, Oskies are better known as one thing.

Lt. Adrianna Riley was a good soldier, but she found life in the Navy's elite fighting force to be less heroic than she had dreamed of as a child.

Her noble wish to slay the monsters no one else could, to rescue people from their war-torn homes, led her to volunteer for a lifetime of service. Not to a country or to a flag, but simply to defend the people who can't defend themselves.

Her commanders gave her cybernetic augments, grafted motors to her bones and steel to her muscles. And they gave her one mandate: kill the enemies of the Empire wherever they hide.

But an Empire's greatest weapon is not a soldier or a bomb--it's information. And when bad intelligence leaves Adrianna's strike team trapped behind enemy lines, she will have to use every tool of her trade to keep them alive.

The 1st Chapter of a New Trilogy in the Capital-verse begins with this super-soldier action/adventure.
