Publisher Marketing: In the sci-fi genre there are few books that can compete with Battle Against the Death Troopers as 'must read' stories. Dramatic, compelling and a totally absorbing read, it ranks among the very best available to science fiction fans at the present time. When the Earth Shuttle Juniper Four is attacked by Death Charger, leader of the truly fearsome robotic race of Death Troopers, the intrepid, courageous but slightly inexperienced and newly promoted Captain Shaun Roberts of the British Space Division is given the mission to find the lost shuttle. His crew are subsequently attacked and taken prisoner by Death Charger's Dragon Ship. Once on board Shaun and his other crew member befriend a robot from the planet Antarctica and with the help of the young, beautiful Doctor Callum they escape to the planet Antarctica. Queen Arturo of Antarctica, who has lost all high ranking military officials to a surprise attack from the Death Troopers, offers Shaun the chance to command her fleet into battle. Will Shaun accept the challenge, or will he turn his back on the Antarctican people and find a way home? Find out how Shaun deals with this dilemma in this debut novel by one of the U K's most talented new sci-fi authors.
