Publisher's Summary
Even the dead long for home ...
They are the Lost Legions. Famed warriors in the annals of military history, made famous when they struck out for the stars to fight a Savage invasion ... never to return or be heard from again.
Until new evidence is uncovered that a Lost Legion sleeps in the pocked craters of a distant mining world.
Sergeant Carson Metzger, a replacement pilot for a Republic HARD HK-PP mech unit, is sent to act as security for the science team seeking to confirm the discovery of the fabled missing legion.
But when the local miners object to the arrival of Republic forces, tensions simmer to an all-out boil. Caught in a hostile revolt and stranded from the rest of their unit, Metzger and his fellow mech jockeys must survive against overwhelming odds ...
... or suffer the same fate as the Lost Legion that came before.
Jump in the cockpit and get ready to stomp through the destruction with this stand-alone tale by New York Times best-selling author Blaine L. Pardoe with Anspach & Cole.
It’s time to bring the Lost Legion home!

More Mech combat for Galaxy's Edge
As a long time fan of the original BattleTech novels, I reread Blaine Lee Pardoe's 1995 novel Highlander Gambit every few years. This injection of Mech warfare DNA into the GE universe is an amazing experience.
The familiar mech combat tete-et-tete battle narratives slow time while still illustrating the thrilling violence of action and relentless pace when these giant war machines meet their equals on the battlefield.
I hope this is the first indication of a series since mech warfare would only enhance the GE universe and seems like an organic addition.

A excellent addition.
Having listened to the Galaxy's Edge series multiple times, and poured over all the spin offs, I was a little uncertain about an outside author adding their take to the universe.
And I had nothing to fear.
The style is definitely different, and it took a few chapters to get used to the unique take, especially since this whole work is coming from the perspective of RA troopers, which I think was good, as the differences in writing style can be passed of as the perspective of a basic, and not a Legionair. I especially appreciated how the author continued the tradition of Galaxy's Edge in honoring the service of those fallen.
All in all a great work. Really awesome to have a taste of combat mechs. Would love to see more combined force warfare in the future!
