It was supposed to be just another job: trash the cargo of a shipping line that had been messing with a Revenge Squad client. Honestly, I hadn't meant to blow the ship sky high. And when it transpired that the ship was owned by the most powerful man in Port Zahir, and that he blamed us for the damage he'd suffered, it was Revenge Squad's turn to face revenge.
My name is NJ McCall, and this is the story of how I helped to tear Port Zahir apart, and then tried to stitch it back together… with mixed results. It's about dark obsessions, corruption in high places, killer droids with attitude, and a city coming apart along racial lines. Along the way, I sing for my life, develop an inappropriate attraction to several civil officials, am recruited by a Legion spy, and get close and personal to a perverted statue.
But most of all, it's about finding a new family amongst the most unexpected people I could imagine: aliens.
'Second Strike' is the second novel of the Revenge Squad series of urban fantasy/ space opera crossover novels set in the worlds of the Human Legion. Fans of Jim Butcher's 'The Dresden Files' will feel at home here as much as followers of science fiction adventures from Michael Anderle, Daniel Arenson, and Amy DuBoff.
