In the Stormy Red Sky

Description

Daniel Leary is Cinnabar's most successful space captain; his friend, Lady Adele Mundy, is its most efficient spy - but they've got their hands full this time as they face: a vengeful Cinnabar Senator, a boy ruler of a star cluster who thinks he's a god, a world of slaves and escaped slaves, and an almost indestructible enemy base. From palace to reeking jungle, from gunfights in grimy hangars to the flagship's bridge during a sprawling space battle, Leary and Mundy are in the thick of it again.

David Drake is one of the most respected military science fiction authors in the industry, having developed the "Hammer's Slammers" series and the "RCN" series for Baen Books-two of the first hugely popular military SF series. A Vietnam War veteran, he is renowned for bringing the military sensibility to his stories and the soldier's sensibilities to his characters.
