Marooned on a perilous alternate Earth, Colonel Lewis Cayce and his soldiers face overwhelming odds in this gripping adventure. Stranded in a hostile environment, Cayce leads a diverse group of Americans, Yucatán natives, and Jaguar Warriors against the formidable forces of Dominion general Agon. In a surprising turn, Agon recognizes the Dominion's inherent evil and betrays his leaders, aligning with Cayce to combat their shared enemy. As they unite to push back toward the dark heart of the Dominion in the Great Valley of Mexico, they encounter a fresh wave of Dominion troops determined to halt their advance on the Holy City. The looming threat of the Gran Cruzada, a massive Dominion army previously heading to the Californias, adds urgency to their mission. Time is of the essence, and before Cayce can execute his strategy for victory, he must confront a larger, better-trained army led by a commander whose strategic prowess rivals his own. The battle to keep his soldiers alive—friends and comrades alike—will challenge Cayce like never before, and the outcome will irrevocably alter their lives. The stakes have never been higher as they navigate this brutal conflict.

On their way to fight in the Mexican-American War, a group of American soldiers are swept away to a strange and deadly alternate Earth in this thrilling new adventure set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Destroyermen series. The United States, 1847. A disparate group of young American soldiers are bound to join General Winfield Scott's campaign against Santa Anna at Veracruz during the Mexican-American War. They never arrive. Or rather . . . they arrive somewhere else. The untried, idealistic soldiers are mostly replacements, really; a handful of infantry, artillery, dragoons, and a few mounted riflemen with no unified command. And they've been shipwrecked on a terrible, different Earth full of monsters and unimaginable enemies. Major Lewis Cayce, late of the 3rd US "Flying" Artillery, must unite these men to face their fears and myriad threats, armed with little more than flintlock muskets, a few pieces of artillery, and a worldview that spiritually and culturally rebels against virtually everything they encounter. It will take extraordinary leadership and a cadre of equally extraordinary men and women to mold frightened troops into an effective force, make friends with other peoples the evil Holy Dominion would eradicate, and reshape their "manifest destiny" into a cause they can all believe in and fight for. For only together will they have any hope of survival.

Matt Reddy and his sailors have fought, bled, and died for their Lemurian friends and other allies from across time, but their enemies are still operational.

In South America, the NUS, General Shinya, and the Army of the Sisters have the evil Dominion on the ropes and are closing in on the seat of its blood-drenched power, but the twisted Don Hernan has struck a deal with the fascist League, and Victor Gravois is finally assembling the awesome fleet of modern ships he's always craved. If he's successful, the war will be lost. Undermined by treachery on a stunning scale, Matt Reddy must still steam his battered old ship halfway around the world, scraping up what forces he can along the way, and confront the mightiest armada the world has ever seen in a fiery duel to the death."-- Provided by publisher
