Retreat and adapt: agu series - book 9, paperback/thomas j. deprima

Admiral Jenetta Carver, in Region One for just the second time since becoming Commander of the Second Fleet, receives a message that the scout-destroyer Yenisei, on routine patrol, is overdue.

The ships last report ended with a statement that they were attempting to overtake several small ships spotted on their DeTect monitors.

Weeks later, the Yenisei is found.

Technological advances have made Space Command the most powerful military force in the known galaxy, but although sheathed with Dakinium and believed to be almost impervious to weapons fire, the Yeniseis hull is riddled with holes and the crew is dead.

The ships computer log contains images of three attacking vessels with a configuration never before seen in GA space.

It appears that a new enemy has emerged, one with weapons superior to anything Space Command has in its arsenal.
