Summary
EDITORIAL REVIEW: *One Good Soldier* is
the third book in the rapid-fire hard science military SF
series of *One Day on Mars* and *The Tau* *Ceti Agenda*.
In another *24*-like narrative set six years after the events
in *The Tau Ceti Agenda*,* *this exciting action story unfolds
in a single critical day in the history of the United States of
the Sol System, the extra-solar colonies, the Separatist
Revolutionaries of the Tau Ceti system, and all of mankind.
As another of Earth’s colonies, Ross 128, secedes from
the union, the President of the United States, former marine
major Alexander Moore, takes swift action to prevent a second
American Civil War, this time on an interstellar scale. He
sends the flagship of the U.S. Naval fleet through the Quauntum
Membrane Teleporter based in the Oort Cloud to the seceding
colony. But the Tau Ceti Separatists have stationed their
own teleporter there and the flagship will be met with heavy
resistance from the Separatist Navy.
And, unknown to the president and first lady, their eighteen
year old military school cadet daughter has been kidnapped and
whisked away to the Separatist leader's house on Tau Ceti.
Only the heroics and sacrifices of ***one good soidier*** after
another can save the flagship, the Union, and the first
daughter in an all-out winner-take-all showdown
that reaches its final climax with frenzied
hand-to-hand combat in the Oval Office itself. *Praise
for Travis S. Taylor:* “[*Warp Speed*] reads like Doc
Smith writing Robert Ludlum. . . .You won't want to put it
down. FLUBELLS AWAY!” —**John Ringo**
“In the tradition of Golden Age SF . . . [*The
Quantum Connection*, sequel to *Warp Speed*] explodes with
inventive action . . . dazzling . . . cutting-edge scientific
possibilities. . . .” —*Publishers Weekly*
