The Galactics arrived with their Battle Fleet in 2052. Rather than being exterminated under a barrage of hell-burners, Earth joined a vast Empire that spanned the Milky Way. Our only worthwhile trade goods are our infamous mercenary legions, elite troops we sell to the highest alien bidder. In the fifth book of the Undying Mercenaries series, James McGill meets new challenges. War comes to Earth, striking a devastating blow. Bent on revenge, Legion Varus chases raiders to the stars and discovers an alien menace growing in their home territory. A cancerous species of invaders plaguing our region of the galaxy and must be dealt with. In DEATH WORLD, McGill faces an ever more threatening universe. He learns why the Cephalopod Kingdom has yet to attack Earth, and what’s happening behind the scenes in the Core Worlds. Throughout, he maintains his unbending sense of right, wrong and honor. DEATH WORLD is a military science fiction novel by bestselling author B. V. Larson.
