Issue In Doubt

By David Sherman

“David Sherman writes about Marines with the razor-sharp realism of one of their own.”
Jack Campbell, Best-Selling Author, Lost Fleet Series

We are not alone!

In exploring and colonizing the galaxy, humanity discovers evidence of eighteen sentient species. Seventeen of them had not developed interstellar travel. Those were destroyed by the species that did reach the stars. That space-faring eighteenth decimated the human colony on the Semi-Autonomous World Troy.

A Marine Force Recon platoon sent to investigate is wiped out almost to the last man. In reaction, the North American Union assembles the largest army seen since the major wars of the 20th Century.

A Marine Corps Combat Force is sent to "Kick in the door," backed up by a four-divison Army corps to take the planet back. The initial landing is unopposed. It isn't until the fleet carrying the Army corps is approaching Troy that the enemy strikes, with devastating effect.

David Sherman

About the Author David Sherman is a husband, IT guru, writer, and general geek-of-all-trades. While in college, he studied history and majored in Biblical languages. He later turned his love of languages to computers, and built his IT career first as a programmer-analyst and later a systems architect. He has traveled around the world as part of his career, working with people in a dozen different countries and cultures, and has thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. David loves science fiction and fantasy, and is just arrogant enough to think that he has some worthy stories of his own to contribute to the genres. He lives in Colorado, USA, with his wife and several furry critters.
