The last of the three original colonies settled by mankind thousands of years in the past has been destroyed. Britannia, America, and Melbourne have all been attacked and destroyed by two aggressive, advanced alien civilizations. But the humans on Melbourne managed to escape and settle other colonies before Melbourne was found and destroyed. Now the colonies are hiding in the outer spiral arm of the Milky Way building up their defenses against the day when they can take on their attackers. Sixteen years have passed, and New Britannia and the colonies have continued to build up their forces without being discovered by their enemies. But one day, the time would come to confront their attackers. The challenge will be difficult; their enemies still far outnumber them and the only thing keeping them safe is remaining hidden. But sometimes, events can force one out of hiding. Fighting to save Humanity is one such event.Excerpt: Fighting for HumanityThe Supreme War Leader was holding position at the rear of the giant formations and he ordered the fleets to hold formation as the Fagan warships moved in on them at high speed. He planned to capture them in a massive crossfire. He knew the range of his Planet Killer’s blasters far exceeded those on the Fagan fortresses and he expected this fight to end quickly. But the giant Fagan formation suddenly turned into a gigantic wedge and blew into the center of his formations. Tens of thousands of Fagan warships were blasted into vapor, but they were now inside the alien formations and the increased range of the alien’s blasters was neutralized; they couldn’t fire at the Fagan without hitting their own ships and the ensuing battle was nightmarish. The War Leader saw holding formation in the developing battle was a death sentence. Fagan warships were crashing into Planet Killers and he yelled over the fleet’s frequency, “ALL SHIPS SCATTER AND FIGHT THEM SHIP TO SHIP!! SCATTER AND SURVIVE!!” The Supreme War Leader realized that the fight would be resolved in space just outside the spiral arm. It was horror on a grand scale, and it didn’t stop.Keeping track of all the warships around you was impossible. The millions of ships picked a target and attacked it with every weapon on board. Many were destroyed by warships moving in from the side or a Fagan rushing in and ramming a Planet Killer. Ships were dying in impossible numbers and still the carnage continued.The Fagan Fleet Leader stayed behind the front lines of his fortresses but realized any semblance of order had disappeared. He looked at his pilot and ordered, “Attack those three large enemy vessels in front of us.” The giant fortress rushed forward and was rocked by a Planet Killer’s beam that grazed the Fortress. The Pilot saw that the ship was losing atmosphere and he gritted his teeth and went to maximum speed. He rammed into the center Planet Killer and both ships went up in a huge blast taking out the two Planet Killers holding position next to the rammed ship. Everywhere death stalked space taking its toll.Review: Britannia III - Fighting for Melbourne - Another Absolutely Brilliant Science Fiction Adventure Series!December 24, 2018Format: Kindle EditionMost people in today's world don't read books!
