Forged in Battle

By: Marc Alan Edelheit

Narrated by: Daniel Wisniewski

Captain Jaxon Steele never expected his first command to throw him into the heart of a raging storm....

On a routine diplomatic mission, Steele's ship is orbiting a war-torn planet when the entire system erupts in rebellion. Missiles smash into Ranger's shields. Communications are jammed. Enemy warships are closing in fast....

Ranger is an advanced destroyer—fast, stealthy, and armed to the teeth—but she wasn't built for heavy fighting and a rebel battleship would tear her to shreds. Steele will need all his trickery and tactical genius to survive the first strike.

But survival is not enough. A vast enemy fleet is lurking somewhere in the system. Only Ranger can locate it and prevent a catastrophic defeat.

Steele knows his duty. He begins a deadly game of hunter and hunted across the rebel system, knowing that any mistake will be his last. Can his leadership, daring, and resolve turn the tide of the war?

Packed with high-stakes space combat, breathtaking tension, and jaw-dropping twists, Forged in Battle is a military science fiction adventure perfect for fans of David Weber's Honor Harrington series and James S. A. Corey's The Expanse.
