A legendary warrior in the Dirigent Mercenary Corps, Colonel Lon Nolan is ready to distance himself from a world of war and death, until he learns that the chancellor of Elysium is coming to Dirigent, hoping to enlist the aid of the DMC against the maruading mercenaries of New Sparta.
The last of six books that trace the career of a soldier of Dirigent, a planet whose main industry is providing mercenary services. Good, solid military stuff.
hard to believe I've finished these. They weren't anything truly amazing, but it was nice to always fall back on a book where you knew how things would go.
