IN THE DEEP BLACK, A BROKEN SHIP IS JUST RAW MATERIAL FOR A DEADLY ARMADA.
Commander Elias Thorne has successfully turned two corrupt empires against one another, but the victory came at a steep cost. Cut off from all Vanguard core resupply and hunted by furious Solarian Syndicate dreadnoughts, the Aegis is running on borrowed time and failing analog components.
They can't outrun the corporate mega-empire forever. But Thorne doesn't plan on running. He plans on building an armada.
Thorne and his brilliant Chief Engineer, Jax Holden, initiate a ruthless campaign of logistical warfare. If the Syndicate won't surrender, Thorne will systematically dismantle them and use their cutting-edge technology to upgrade his obsolete underdog fleet. Targeting a heavily fortified Syndicate naval graveyard, Thorne orchestrates a mathematically flawless salvage operation.
But extracting hostile tech in zero gravity isn't just dangerousit’s an invitation to a slaughter. When a Syndicate patrol fleet intercepts their scavenger run, Thorne must use the very debris field against them. Utilizing complex delta-V optimization cold-drift towing maneuvers, and precise kinetic strikes, Thorne will prove that the laws of physics are far deadlier than endless corporate funding.
The Syndicate thinks they are hunting a wounded animal. They didn't calculate that Thorne is turning their own destroyed dreadnoughts into his ultimate weapon.
Kinetic Harvest is a gripping full-length epic and the thrilling third installment in The Vanguard Calculus series. Masterfully blending gritty logistical survival with hyper-competent orbital mechanics and deep-space salvage operations, it’s a masterclass in hard science fiction. If you crave the fleet tactics of Jack Campbell’s The Lost Fleet, the chain-of-command grit of David Weber’s Honor Harrington, and the survival mechanics of Andy Weir, prepare for your next obsession.
