When All Seems Lost (#7)

Human and machine. Elite and expendable. They are the Legion of the Damned™.
In the distant future, condemned criminals and the terminally ill face two choices: they can die, or they can join the Legion of the Damned, an elite fighting force that consists of human legionnaires and cyborgs.

As an interstellar war rages, the president of the Confederacy is captured by the Ramanthians and sent to a brutal labor camp, where he takes an assumed name in order to protect his identity. His fellow prisoners have agreed to keep his true identity a secret—but he can’t be sure they’ll keep their promise.

Meanwhile, General Bill Booly has organized an unauthorized rescue manned by a team of volunteers who have nothing to lose and are led by Captain Antonio Santana. The captain must put aside his feelings for his former lover, Christine Vanderveen, to ensure the mission’s success.

But soon none of that will matter—since the planet is about to be overrun by billions of Ramanthian hatchlings, all eager to feed on human flesh.
