A Broken Alliance (Sentenced to War Book 5) Kindle Edition

by J.N. Chaney (Author), Jonathan P. Brazee (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 3,091 ratings
With the war against the Centaurs won, is a lasting peace finally at hand?

Staff Sergeant Reverent Pelletier has been attached to the Congress of Humanity’s Home Guard, tasked with keeping the home system safe.

Old rivalries and new enemies threaten the alliance, despite the counsel general’s mission to ensure humanity doesn’t fall into their old ways of conflict and war.

It’s a noble cause, but can humankind break the scourge that has affected them since they emerged from the trees? Has the war with the Centaurs that almost wiped humanity from existence taught them anything?

Experience says it is unlikely, but still, anything is possible. Get ready for the fifth entry in the international bestselling series, Sentenced to War, from USA Today Bestselling Authors J.N. Chaney and Jonathan Brazee. If you're a fan of intense military science fiction and realistic battle scenes, you'll love this ongoing scifi epic.

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    I am a retired Marine infantry colonel and now a full-time writer living in Colorado Springs with my wife Kiwi and twin five-year-old girls, Danika Dawn and Darika Marie. I am a two-time Nebula Award Finalist, a two-time Dragon Award Finalist, and a USA Today Bestselling writer.

    I published my first work back in 1978, a so-so short story titled "Secession." Since then, I have been published in newspapers, magazines, and in book format in fiction, political science, business, military, sports, race relations, and personal relations fields. I returned to writing fiction in 2009, and I currently have over 100 titles published, 80 being novels. My novelette, "Weaponized Math," was a finalist for the 2017 Nebula Award, "Fire Ant" was a finalist for the 2018 Nebula Award for Best Novella, "Integration" was a finalist for the 2018 Dragon Award for Best Military Science Fiction or Fantasy Novel, and "Sentenced to War" was a finalist for the 2021 Dragon Award in the same category.

    My undergraduate degree was earned at the U. S. Naval Academy (Class of 1979), and I have attended graduate school at U. S. International University and the University of California, San Diego, earning a masters and doctorate. I am a lifetime member of the Disabled American Veterans, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the US. Naval Academy Alumni Association, and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America where I'm serving as the Nebula Award Commissioner.

    I have rather eclectic tastes. I have won awards in photography, cooking, writing, and several sports, earning national championships in rugby and equestrian events. When I'm not writing, I'm reading, cooking, going to the gym, taking my girls fishing, or traveling. I attend quite a few cons over the course of a year, and love meeting other people who love books.

    I write because I love it. I only hope that others might read my work and get a bit of enjoyment or useful information out of my efforts.

    Politics and Marines, makes me think of oil and vinegar! Even in the future, it sure looks like that is still the norm. These well written books do a great jobs of portraying how the military (Marines, Airmen, sailors, soldiers) have to March to the beat of the political machine, yet do their best to properly interpret those orders and fine the best way to accomplish them. The books also portray the human element in a truly realistic manner. You feel the frustration of questionable orders past down from governments, the angst of loosing teammates, the second guessing “did I do all I could do” to improve the outcome?

    This series is exceptionally well written! Lysol. Brazee truly brings home the Pride, Comradship & Esprit D' Corps that Makes the Marine Corps the Great Fighting Force that it is!
    The characters are beautifully developed, while not the same names, I have served with many of the Marines created, probably from memory, in this series!
    When it comes to Tomiko, Rev is as dumb as a stump, but the waiting just adds to the story!
    On to the next book!

    Another great read from these two guys for sure IMHO. I enjoy the characters as much as I do the action and adventure of new worlds. Never a dull moment, when the rounds start to fly down range, and the movement to contact is excellent. I highly recommend it, that you start from book one, and come forward through the entire adventure, which I'm sure you'll enjoy.

    I’ve enjoyed this series as a bit of escape but this particular one was not nearly as exciting and I found myself putting it down in boredom once too often. A definite transition book in the series and while I expect the next duty station for Rev to be more exciting I hope a little more effort is being put into telling it.

    I gave a poor review of book 4 whilst the first 3 were good and hoped that 5 would be the same. Thankfully 5 was worth a go
    Much more about the people rather than the politics. Politics still plays a part, just less so.
