Peter Raeder, ace pilot, lost a hand in the war against the Mollies - and, with it, his right to fly the fighter ships that had been his first love. He became Flight Engineer on the fast carrier Invincible, a crack new ship with a hand-picked crew, ready to fight both the Mollies who control the universe's richest anti-hydrogen mines, and the loathsome spider-like aliens who are their allies. On his very first mission he faced pirate raiders, attacks by Mollies and a hidden saboteur who came close to destroying the Invincible before Raeder unmasked him.
Unfortunately for Raeder, his heroism didn't follow the rulebook, and his reward for saving the ship was a dressing-down from a martinet admiral and a deskbound assignment - a fate worse than death for a born spacehound like Raeder. But then a less rule-bound officer offers him an escape: to command a hidden base deep in Mollie-controlled space from which he will harry Mollie shipping, like the seagoing privateer's of Earth's historic past. And Raeder finds a dangerous mission preferable to exile to an office cubicle - even if his chances of surviving this assignment are little better than zero.
JAMES DOOHAN was an engineer and later Captain of Artillery in World War II, and his Star Trek role of Montgomery Scott, chief Engineer of the USS Enterprise, was based to a great extent on his real-life persona. The Flight Engineer series was conceived as a science fiction extension of his experiences as a pilot and engineer.
S.M. STIRLING is a top science fiction author whose novels include the No.1 bestseller (with Anne McCaffrey) 'The City Who Fought' and the 'General' series written jointly with David Drake.
