Product Description:
With the planet's fighting men and women deployed across the galaxy—battling in the noble cause of enslaved humanity—the insidious Xul have reached across space to devastate the unsuspecting Earth with asteroid fire. Without warning, a once majestic world is reduced to near-rubble—and the very future of humankind is in dire jeopardy.
Interplanetary leaders are on the brink of abandoning Earth and its colonies to an overwhelming enemy. But Brigadier General Garroway of the Marine Interstellar Expeditionary Unit is unwilling to concede defeat—not as long as there's a single marine willing to give his or her life in defense of their embattled homeworld. The ultimate battle is about to be waged—with breathtaking new attack technology, an ancient code of courage, and the help of an ally race that once inhabited the Earth—in a war that will alter the universe forever . . .

I'm a bit disappointed in the disjoining of this series from the previous one. There were a few references, but this was 'way too big a jump to perform comfortably.

STAR MARINES(2007) is the third book of THE LEGACY TRILOGY. This trilogy is itself a follow-on to THE HERITAGE TRILOGY(1998-2001).

The biggest complaint I have with this entry in the series is that it jumps around ... Read More

I really enjoyed this book. Being a Marine, it was interesting to know that the history and pride of the Marine Corps carries on into the future.

I read a lot of sci-fi and the storyline of this series intrigued me. I made it about 50 pages in before I gave up. It was just plain dry and boring. Wooden characters I didn't care what happened to and a long drawn out introduction to establish something that could be established in a paragraph - that the rest of the world doesn't like the U.S. because we won't cede sovereignty to the U.N.
It just isn't good writing. The action is too slow-paced and the writer is too preachy and ... Read More

I have read both this series and the Heritage Triology and this was a great book to end the series. Mr. Douglas/Keith did a great job with the action and with the overall story.
Bringing in the Marines from Ishtar was a great touch. The description of the near end of the world was outstanding. The space combat and the assualt on the alien system was excellent and very believable.
I would recommend both series to anyone who enjoys Military Science Fiction. I hope Mr. Douglas/Keith ... Read More
