Fans of classics like Starship Troopers and The Forever War--as well
as modern masters like Ian Douglas, Jack McDevitt, B.V. Larson, and
Marko Kloos--will be sucked into Mel Odom's military science fiction
series, the Markaum War, starting with Master Sergeant.
They call it The Green Hell. A maze of tangled jungle, the planet Makaum
is one of the most dangerous places in the universe. And for Terran
Military Master Sergeant Frank Sage, it is now home.
The war between the Terrans and the Phrenorians rages, and both sides
have their sights set on Makaum. If the planet's rich resources fall
into enemy hands it could mean devastation for the Terran Army. To
ensure that doesn't happen, Sage is sent to assess the Makaum troops and
bring them in line with Terran Military standards. But soon after
arriving at his post, he realizes the Phrenorians are not the only
threat. Heading up a small but fearless unit, Sage must stop a brewing
civil war with the power to unleash a galactic cataclysm unlike anything
ever seen.
