The Cruel Stars
A stand-alone set during the Ark Royal Era.
The Royal Navy never expected to fight a full-scale interstellar
war. Everyone knew the Great Powers would never risk everything on
armed conflict, when there was plenty of room for everyone in outer
space. But when a hostile alien force stumbles across humanity’s
handful of colony worlds, the Great Powers must set aside their
differences and fight to preserve humanity from utter destruction.
Desperate for starships and manpower, the Royal Navy embarks upon an
ambitious plan of converting freighters into makeshift carriers and
recruiting reservists and criminals to fill the ranks. Classed as
expendable, the small carriers will be given the most dangerous
missions to slow a remorseless alien foe ...
... And the pardons their crews have been offered will be
meaningless if they die.
