anthology: BATTLESTATION, Book Two - VANGUARD

Already the weapon on which the Fleet's victory hangs, the mammoth space station Stephen Hawking, is under constant assault. Outside its heavily shielded hull, a swarm of Ichton crafts hovers menacingly. And within the pseudoplanet's stratified decks, the pressures of combat and close quarters turn the Hawking's overstressed crew into the enemy's most dangerous advantage...
