A nearly superhuman Marine finds love in a most unusual way, and when duty rips him from her, he uses any means necessary, within his code of honor, to return to their small universe. Chosen to lead the most powerful space force ever assembled, because of a fluke mixing of DNA with an Alien monster, Jake Matthews spares no entity standing in the way of his mission. He vows to forge an unbeatable engine of destruction, powerful enough to force peace across eternal space. Casserine provides a wild ride for a reader who wishes to see a vista of future America, where citizens across the galaxies pledge allegiance to one Earth nation’s flag. In so doing, they birth an empire of single minded purpose, and incredible power. Views: 14
