Más información sobre el libro

The struggle for control in Iran escalates into a space-based conflict when a disgraced former military chief orchestrates an insurgency against the theocratic regime. As the situation intensifies, Iranian rebel leader General Hesarak al-Kan Buzhazi seeks assistance from U.S. Air Force Lieutenant-General Patrick McLanahan, despite the latter's reluctance to engage American forces in a civil war. With time running out, the U.S. president authorizes McLanahan to deploy a top-secret fleet of spaceplanes, the XR-A9 Black Stallions, commanded by test pilot Captain Hunter Noble. This rapid response shifts the balance of power and potentially alters the future of the Middle East. However, the reactivation of America's first military space station raises concerns about a space arms race, while the Iranian insurgency threatens to escalate into a global jihad. Amidst political turmoil in Washington, where factions vie to either support or sabotage McLanahan's initiative, he must navigate complex battles at home. As McLanahan focuses on these challenges, it falls to Hunter Noble and his team of young engineers to prevent the situation in the Middle East from spiraling out of control. This gripping narrative is filled with advanced weaponry, geopolitical intrigue, and high-stakes suspense.
