The Prince's Alliance

Assigned to New Doncaster to train the planet's armies and lead them into battle, Roland brokered a political compromise that allowed the government to win hearts and minds once the rebels were defeated in the field. He then built a formidable military machine that could–and did–push the rebels to the brink of defeat. But Roland's success bred hatred, and his enemies, seeing him and his loyal troops out on a limb, launched a coup and left Roland stranded deep in enemy territory. Roland isn't one to give up. But, with a government preparing to use desperate measures to obliterate the rebels on one side and a crude alliance of suspicious rebel factions on the other, he must act fast to save the planet...or watch helplessly as the civil war rages on.
