Sons of the Selenar is a novella of the Siege of Terra series.
Description
The Shattered Legions crew of the Sisypheum, broken and at the end of their endurance, find themselves divided, torn between following their resurrected captain on a suicidal mission or obeying orders to return to Terra and rejoin their Legion brothers. Following a series of garbled messages intercepted by the Kryptos, the divided warriors descend to the surface of Luna. Here, their bonds of loyalty and duty, as well as their devotion to one another, will be tested as ancient horrors from the earliest days of gene-manipulation are unleashed. A long-buried secret will be revealed - a secret that will have far-reaching consequences for the future course of the galaxy, no matter who eventually claims Terra.[1]
