Forge a New Blade (Laredo War Trilogy Book 2)

The Laredo Resistance fought the Bactrian invaders to a standstill, but shattered itself in the process. Through battle, bloodshed and murder, Dave Carson became President of Laredo's Government-in-Exile. Now he must dodge assassination attempts by his enemies while fighting the war on new fronts - with a little unorthodox help from Steve Maxwell of the Lancastrian Commonwealth Fleet.<br /><br />Gloria Aldred, former head of the Resistance, has plans that run counter to everything Dave's trying to achieve - and she's not about to ask his permission to pursue them.<br /><br />Satrap Rostam is trying to cut Bactria's losses and rebuild his exhausted planet, but his generals and nobles have lots of guilty secrets to hide - and they don't mind burying him right along with them if necessary.<br /><br />They're all looking for a critical advantage... until the forgotten survivors of Laredo's Resistance surprise them all. The battle's in space and on the ground, with everything at stake.
