Forged into human weapons to defend humanity against impossible odds, Sergeant Major Reverent Pelletier and the rest of the IBHU Marines and other hyper-augments are discarded by those they fought to protect.
Now that the war is over, they are deemed too dangerous to exist.
Yet, they may still prove valuable.
With two recent, deadly wars against alien races, humanity needs to know what other threats are out there. Exiled from human space, they are given a new mission: dive into the unknown depths of the galaxy and discover what else lurks in the far reaches of space.
Space is vast but full of danger. Discovering it is a near certainty, given enough time.
