When an alien appeared uninvited on my farm, I grabbed the carbine I'd liberated from the Legion, fixed the filthy creature in my sights and… stayed my hand. Within seconds I was regretting that show of mercy. I've regretted it ever since.
My name is NJ McCall, and this is the story of how a faded old soldier wound up clearing the deranged streets of Port Zahir in the employ of the planet's premier paramilitary retribution service.
It's a story of redemption, or learning to trust the ghosts in my head, of stumbling across a path out of the Human Legion that didn't end with me dead in a gutter.
There are dark conspiracies too, borderline insanity, and the corporate espionage that stuffed me into a smart shirt and cravat.
But most of all, it's about why I can't stand aliens. Especially when they save me from myself.
'After War' is a dark, feature-length prequel for 'Revenge Squad', the urban space opera series by Tim C. Taylor set in the worlds of the Human Legion. Fans of Jim Butcher's 'The Dresden Files' will feel at home here as much as followers of science fiction adventures from Michael Anderle, Daniel Arenson, and Amy DuBoff.
