The Buchanan Campaign by Rick Shelley
Rick Shelley's Federation War trilogy begins with a novel that takes you through the barracks corridors and the trenches of war, bringing the war of the future home with a combination of battlefield action and home-town heroics.
For Doug Weintraub of the Buchanan Planetary Commission, it begins with a fuzzy call, quickly cut off. Federation troops have invaded his world. The battle they've long feared and tried to avoid is coming. Now it's time to seek help, to launch a rocket into Q Space, and hope for Second Commonwealth troops to arrive - and soon.
Aboard the Starship Victoria, it begins differently. It's a short, unexpected message on the screen for Sergeant David Spencer of the Royal Marines. New orders - surprising ones - that will send him and his men to an independent frontier world that's become a new front in the war between the Commonwealth and Federation.
Doug Weintraub and David Spencer soon find themselves in unexpected roles - a skilled warrior in the Royal Marines side-by-side with a back-world farmer. They'll need each other to keep the Federation at bay.
