Conrad's Last Campaign

(2014)
(The eighth book in the Adventures of Conrad Stargard series)
A novel by

 
 
This the last work of Leo Frankowski and the last chapter of the Adventures of Conrad Stargard. It completes a series begun in 1986 and spanning eight books.
The series ends in the best of Leo's tradition of rousing adventure intermixed with the engineering details that fleshed out his earlier work.
When Leo returned from Russia in 2006, he began working on the final chapter of Conrad's life. His age and declining health made progress slow, but he was eventually able to complete the plot outline and write part of the final book.
Leo and I had decided that Conrad would grow and change in the last book and find a way to noble retirement or noble death. You will have to read the last chapter to know which path was chosen.
Unfortunately, Leo died before finishing the text. On Christmas Morning 2008, he died suddenly and peacefully from the effects of various drugs that he was prescribed.
However, the book was well started and the plot done and Leo wanted everyone to know what happened to Conrad. Fortunately, Leo had coached me in his writing style to enable me to contribute to earlier writings, so I finished the book for him.
