The Pandoran war machine ravaged the galaxy, driving the human race to the brink of destruction. Seven men and women stood in its way. This is their story. (Note: this book contains all three novels in the trilogy - The Honour of the Knights (Second Edition), The Third Side, and The Attribute of the Strong. It is not a fourth novel.
When starfighter pilot Simon Dodds is enrolled in a top secret military project, he and his wingmates begin to suspect that there is a lot more to the theft of a legendary battleship and an Imperial nation's civil war than either the Confederation Stellar Navy or the government are willing to let on.
A complete science-fiction trilogy in one volume. This is difficult to write a description for, being that it is 3 novels in one volume...Judas is a cast-off of society, sent to explore the dark reaches of space. He's sent in an experimental vehicle that drops into another layer of space with unknown properties. When he gets too curious, his life and everyone around him begin to change forever. He ends up at the center of galactic war, interplanetary politics, interspecies breeding, and just a whole lot of messes. He's a survivor though, and just wants to be left alone with a few of his favorite females. Is that so much to ask?
The words of a dying man, the theft of a legendary battleship, and the threats posed by the Mitikas Empire's civil war were but a few of the concerns that plagued Simon Dodds' mind upon his return to naval service. What was far more disturbing was the amount of information he wasn't being given... Across the other side of the known universe a terrible fate had befallen a once glorious Imperial nation; a fate that dozens of governments throughout the galaxy were keen to keep secret for as long as possible. But the danger was growing, and only a few months after his return Dodds would find his world, along with that of his old wingmates, flipped on its head. Very soon the five pilots would come face to face with that which destroyed an empire: an unforgiving, unstoppable, and totally unrelenting foe. There seemed to exist only one glimmer of hope of driving back the darkness - The ATAF Project - a secretly developed set of starfighters that well may just harbour some terrible secrets of their own...
