Flight of the Intrepid 1: Ambush (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798348281922)

For fifty years, humanity has stood its ground against the Drechnai. Tyrants of the first order, these beings have wiped out over a dozen spacefaring races, and they've done everything in their power to make humanity the next.

But for those fifty years, humans have scraped out a desperate battle for survival, relying on determination, tenacity, and raw courage to overcome our foe's impossible technological advantage. Fifty years of constant war has honed our species into a deadly blade.

Without warning, the enemy sued for peace. But Captain George Oliver doesn't trust them at their word, believing that this is some new deceit. Despite his misgivings, Earth's fleet goes to sign a peace accord with the Drechnai.

It's a trap! The human fleet is attacked, leaving Oliver's vessel the sole Star Carrier still intact and able to defend Earth against the strike Oliver knows is coming.

He's not wrong. The Drechnai intend to finish humans off once and for all time, their master stroke dealing death blows to both the fleet and Earth itself.

But they failed to factor in the men and women of the Star Carrier Intrepid, who will pay whatever price is required for the human race to survive!
