Midshipman Henry Gallant in Space - Paperback

by H. Peter Alesso (Author)

As the last starfighter, only Midshipman Henry Gallant can stop the alien invasion.

With the United Planets space fleet on the verge of annihilation, Gallant can expect no help. With so much uncertainty about the aliens, analyzing the captured equipment in his possession is critical.

The fate of Earth could rest on the abilities of Midshipman Henry Gallant. Unfortunately, it is his abilities that are much in doubt.

In an era of genetic engineering, he is the only Natural left in the fleet. His shipmates have all expressed concern that he will not be up to the challenge.

Only bright and attractive junior officer Kelsey Mitchel has shown any sympathy for him. Now, as his navigator on the last starfighter in Squadron 111, her life, as well as a good many others, depends on Henry Gallant.

For Fans of Honor Harrington and Horatio Hornblower.
