Into The Swarm
The Bounty Hunter series continues with the fourth installment in Series One: Into The Swarm.
The story of Burke and Cass continues with a return of an old foe from Burke's past. The dross, an alien infestation that has claimed several of humanity's planets, including Earth, has haunted Burke since he fought in the war against them. Now, years later, he finds himself facing them once again.
Into The Swarm follows Burke and Cass on their return to Earth, to the old battlefields and ruined cities now teeming with aliens. Where he once fought with thousands of other marines, he now fights with only his power armor and partner against overwhelming odds.

The Bounty Hunter stories are a series of novellas following the adventures of Burke Monrow and AI Cass. A bounty hunting duo, they take contracts around the galaxy, apprehending criminals, murderers, vicious aliens, and abide by their own moral code.
The series is best read in order, as there is a larger plot arc that connects the series; however, each installment can be read and enjoyed on its own for the individual story line of each novella. Some names and references to prior events are made, but most can be understood in the context of the story.

Another fun sci-fi reading with Burke (bounty hunter) and his AI (Cass). This time Burke returns to earth which has been taken over by aliens called the Dross. Aliens that Burke fought in a losing war years ago. Now he has returned with a new & improved battlesuit. We learn about not only his past, but also about Cass's past. Seems as if "she" is a special kind of AI, and there is a lot more to this story I am sure.
I am reading this novella as part of the
collection of 5 Bounty Hunter novellas and two other novellas by the same author. 7 novellas in all (and the first one comes in two parts), not bad at all.
