About The Book

Foreign Legion in Space

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A HERO?

The Protectorate of Mars Foreign Legion isn’t just a path to citizenship—it’s a calling. To be more than you were before. A defender, a protector . . . a hero.

COURAGE

Private Diego Tavi proved his worth during the evacuation of Aurora, earning his drop name and finding a new home within the Bronze Legion. But beneath the calm exterior of a battle-tested legionnaire lies a mind in turmoil—about who he is, what he will become, and whether he will be able to keep his sworn oath to be the best legionnaire possible.

HONOR

Lieutenant Astra “Blue” Eliassen proved herself ready for command in the skies of Aurora, earning her Raven wings and a promotion to aircraft commander of Bronze Raven Four. But everything has a cost, and rescuing 4th Squad carried a steep bill—one Sir Percival Norwood is determined to collect. With political games interfering with her military career, Blue will have to lean hard on the lessons of her legendary grandmother or risk losing everything she’s worked so hard for . . . including her dreams of joining the Survey Corps.

Melissa Olthoff writes science fiction and fantasy adventure romance with plenty of banter and heart. She is a lifelong geek and a veteran of the United States Air Force, both of which are incredibly useful when writing. Her degrees in meteorology and accounting are slightly less applicable but absolutely useful when it comes to supporting her family.

Published by Baen Books and Chris Kennedy Publishing, she has written in both shared worlds and her own universes, and through the power of caffeine and friendship, manages to juggle chaos on and off the page. She is best known for her Griffin Corps series and Bronze Legion novels from Baen Books, and can be found somewhere in Tennessee with her exasperated husband, two chaotic kids, and one very energetic German shepherd.
