From Saxon Andrew comes the fifth book in The Fight for Britannia Series. Eighteen years have passed since the Core Civilization was defeated; New Britannia and the Colonies are flourishing and their populations growing. Grady decides that it's time to go home to Britannia. The planet has recovered from the damage done by the Core Alien's attack and is ready to be resettled. The Henricks children will be graduating in a few months and there's nothing standing in the way of them going back home to the planet they were born and raised on. Thousands of the Britannia survivors will join them in the Home Coming.
However, at the end of the war with the Core Civilization, Taffy neglected to share some information she was given by the scouts investigating the Stealth Civilization. It was a small omission but when it comes out, the plans for a Britannia home coming are thrown for a loop. Grady calls off the move to Britannia but sometimes going back home isn't an option. Things can have a way of forcing you to do what you planned anyway.
Excerpt: The Fight for Britannia V-Home Coming
"They've stopped firing missiles."
Justin nodded, "They're waiting to fire them when they're too close for you to be able to hit all of them with our blasters."
The time passed slowly but not slowly enough. "I'm detecting them powering up their missile tubes."
Justin looked at Charlotte and heard over the wall speaker, "Captain Brown, maintain your current course and speed; do not deviate from it! We have a path cleared through our formations and it's imperative you don't change course."
"Sir, the aliens are about to fire an overwhelming missile barrage at my ship!"
"Follow your orders Captain!"
Justin looked up, "Computer, maintain this course at our current speed." He took his hands off the steering wheel. Charlotte stared at him and he said, "I can't trust myself to not try and avoid those missiles. I can't live with the possibility of you being harmed."
Charlotte smiled and turned back to her console. "Here they come."
