Kaelen Voss wanted nothing more than to spend his life fixing machines. Instead, the Terran Legion came for him.
Ripped from his job on a Rim colony by a mandatory conscription sweep, Kaelen is processed, implanted, and shipped to the Crucible — an orbital training station built to turn civilians into drop troopers. His new reality: a neural interface drilled into the base of his skull, a two-and-a-half-metre powered exoskeleton that can kill him as easily as protect him, and a drill sergeant who makes it absolutely clear that most of them won't survive.
If he graduates, he'll be loaded into a drop capsule and launched from orbit into the jaws of the Swarm — an alien hive species systematically destroying humanity's Rim colonies, one world at a time.
Alongside his pod — Chalky the wisecracking tech, Liang the lethal marksman, Doc the steady-handed medic — Kaelen must survive brutal zero-gravity drills, live-fire training, and a first combat drop that will push all of them to the breaking point. Because the enemy isn't just fast, aggressive, and numerous. It thinks. It adapts. And it's waiting.
Legionnaire Drop Trooper is a fast-paced military science fiction novel for fans of powered armour, squad-level action, and soldiers forged in fire. The war against the Swarm has no end in sight — but Kaelen Voss is just getting started.
