Captain Willard Phule, the galaxy's youngest trillionaire, has a problem. Having just survived a court-martial he has "inherited" the Omega mob - the one legion no one wants to run. They are not just tough, they're stupid and it will take all of Phule's charm to turn them into a fighting force.

Présentation de l'éditeur

After being court-martialed by the Space Legion for ordering the strafing of a treaty-signing ceremony, multimillionaire Willard Phule receives his punishment: He must command the misfit Omega Company on Haskin’s Planet, a mining settlement on the edge of settled space. At his duty station, he leverages his personal money and a knack for managing people to get the company to come together as a unit. Phule convinces the governor to leave the contract for an honorary duty up for competition between the Space Legionnaires and the Regular Army. The Army sends some of their most elite troops to take part in the competition, but Phule’s company operates with their own unique tactics....
