The Perdition:

Virion #4

by R.L.M. Sanchez

Freedom City is burning. The Commander has set the spark to burn the status quo at its heart, launching an insurrection to take charge of Earth, the Solar System, and beyond, looking to even the Revente Empire for vengeance. Armed with the legions of Wargame, Tianlong's private navy and the genetic bioweapon "Renatus", his dark vision is leaving millions dead in its wake, victims turning into the nightmarish creatures of the Taken - and Interpol is not prepared. Despite his losses and being recently blackballed by the Earth Council, Marshal McKenna invokes the 7th Mandate, a sacred clause that allows a Marshal to break all established laws to protect the greater good of humanity.

Meanwhile, Sky Marshal Stoker moves to arrest the president of the Tianlong Group, Meilyn Ren, for her illegal development of warp technology. But he learns that she has spiraled far beyond sanity as she threatens to take her fleet and escape the Sol System attacking any in her way, human or Revente. With the Earth Fleet severely outmatched, Stoker must take to the skies and face his destiny head-on. Earth's fate is now up to the weary few as an insurrection looms over the people of Earth. The investigation is over. War has found Earth once again.
