An omnibus including the first four books in the Defense Command
series, 2231: Mars Against Empire covers the outset of the Martian
War. Earth's former colonists on Mars have built their 'Imperium',
and now choose to launch a war against the Earth Empire for
dominance of the solar system. In the process, they run head-first
into the women and men of Defense Command. But even as the first
shots are fired, political instability is taking root in the
Empire, with the Emperor and the Parliament struggling for
dominance. The Egesta crisis is also beginning, and that debacle
will draw Defense Command into the worst peacekeeping disaster in
Imperial history. It is thus a very complicated year, and narrating
these stories, then-Commodore Ken Barron pulls no punches. With is
wry (often lame) sense of humor, he candidly recounts the
adventure, the romance, and the pain, producing what many feel is
the definitive account of the period.
