Humanity’s newest enemy will butcher even a highly trained soldier. But a highly trained soldier piloting a mech? Now we’re getting somewhere... Stranded in a hostile galaxy. Exiled from humanity. Of course we had to carve out a foothold on Eresos. We had no idea someone was already living here… A single Quatro can take down an entire squad. Bigger than a stallion, more muscular than a grizzly, with jaws that splinter bone. And zero fear. But Darkstream Security only ever hired the most elite troops, and we managed to drive the Quatro into the holes they attacked us from. We were better trained, better equipped, and more intelligent. At least, we thought we were. After years of peace, the Quatro are back, in numbers we didn’t know they had, with artillery we didn’t think they could use. Suddenly, if we want to win this thing, we’re going to need a brand new weapon. We’re going to need mechs. Thank God R&D just finished a working prototype. Mech Wars takes place in the same universe as The Ixan Prophecies Trilogy, and it answers the question: what happened when Darkstream escaped the Milky Way for another galaxy?

Scott Bartlett writes his books from inside a mech, which is inside the hangar bay of a light armored cruiser stationed just past Jupiter. Certain parts of the last sentence may not be completely true. Here are some more believable statements: Scott was born in St. John’s, Newfoundland – the easternmost province of Canada. During his decade-long journey to become a full-time author, he supported himself by working an assortment of jobs… ...salmon hatchery technician, grocery clerk, youth care worker, ghostwriter, research assistant, pita maker, and freelance editor. In 2014, he succeeded in becoming a full-time novelist, and he’s been writing science fiction at light speed ever since. Get 3 FREE military space opera ebooks: https://www.scottplots.com
