Synopsis

As the Earth Empire scrambled to find its war footing, then-Commodore Ken Barron was dispatched to the neighboring Hawke Protectorate, to warn Lord Ian Hawke of the crisis. At the same time, Martian and pirate forces began attacking friendly asteroid colonies, forcing both Barron and then-Captain Christian Mikaelsen to rally Defense Command's local forces for a response. In this volume of reminiscences, Barron explores those chaotic early weeks of war, relying on his usual clear and engaging prose... and at least one reference to Lia Hawke's infamous sock puppets.
