He and his comrades battled for a long time in the most appalling conditions humans have ever before endured, believing the whole time these were protecting Earth from bloodthirsty alien monsters. But it was all a rest, the cynical propaganda of the totalitarian program that rules total mankind. The alien Tegeri, and their bio-mechanical soldiers Taylor's men call the Machines, were the patients, targeted with a program that needed an enemy to combine its absolute rule over mankind. For decades, men like Taylor and his soldiers were the aggressors, unwittingly struggling with an unjust warfare. However when the Tegeri select Taylor as their contact and finally told him the awful truth, he rallied the veterans of Erastus for a new battle, someone to free Earth from its self-appointed masters. Taylor's soldiers get started the long plan back to Earth, toward a reckoning with the brutal federal they can be sworn to kill. The heart of the pressure is the Ten Thousands of, surgically-altered Supersoldiers, products of any experimental enlargement program, and the to begin their kind.

The Dark colored Corps outnumbers Taylor's soldiers 2-1, plus they have a massive advantage in source and logistical support. But Taylor's men are veterans of the furnace of Gehenna, plus they don't die easily. But there is more at stake than the liberty of humanity, increased consequences to their fight than even Taylor can see right now. For there is another alien contest, one shrouded in star and myth, recognized to the Tegeri only as the Darkness. Long ago the Darkness.
