Knights Errant

The First Peacemaker, Book 4

By: J.N. Chaney, Aaron Bunce, Terry Maggert

Narrated by: Jeffrey Kafer

Alexander Hawkes built the Galactic Knights Uniformed to be different. Not mercenaries. Not enforcers. Peacekeepers.

But ideals don't pay the bills.

Now the Charter Directorate speaks a new language—one of revenue targets and moral flexibility. While Alexander patrols shopping malls, the galaxy's ugliest truths fester in the shadows. The Nacendo are being herded onto transports like cattle. Planets are harvested for profit. And entire ecosystems are poisoned for mineral rights.

When the organization he founded fails to act, Alexander faces an impossible choice: fall in line or strike out alone. Only this time, he won't be fighting a Puloquir invasion force.

He'll be fighting the system itself.

Sometimes a knight must break the rules to keep his oath. Even if it makes him an outlaw in the eyes of his own order.
