McClaren's Edge
Jason McClareen longs to become an officer in the ConFed Fleet. When he fails to be selected, Jason is too embarased to return home. Instead, he enlists to become a helmsman in the Fleet with the hope of an eventual commission. The recruiter promised him a great opportunity, but he conveniently neglected to mention the scourge of piracy bedeviling the trade lanes and very nearly dying during their attacks. Now "Mac" is dead set on revenge, but to survive, he needs to find an edge, one that will come from the most unexpected direction.

Action packed military science fiction
As a retired military man himself, Ted Blasche writes an authentic story with a true military flavor that combines spaceships and exciting space battles.
Pirates are plaguing the merchant ships and taking cargo and lives. The military has been compromised and it up to young Jason McClaren to root out the source of the trouble.
His journey from wide-eyed young enlisted soldier to top commander isn’t an easy one. Along the way he has to deal with sadistic commanders, bullies from his own rank, incomprehensible regulations, and dangerous assignments. Still, good men and women become his friends, and there is even romance to add spice to his life.
If you like military science fiction, I suggest you try McClaren’s Edge.

terrific
Jason 'mac " Mcclaren is one of the best characters I've read about , he's simply an honest honourable guy who doesn't avoid the hard choices and is relentless in his pursuit of the pirate scum who have had such a adverse effect on all those who crew ships in space.
