The Silent Warrior is the
second novel in The Forever Hero trilogy, following Dawn for a Distant
Earth. In the previous volume, Gershwin and his compatriots liberate a
shipload of arcdozers for the reclamation effort. When they return the
(mostly) unhurt crew of the stolen ship, the Empire quickly determines
the perpetuators of the hijacking and move in force on Old Earth. The
Court of Inquiry soon establishes guilt, but is reluctant to publicize
the crime. They recommend leaving the arcdozers in place and
transferring the current garrison to the newly formed Imperial
Reclamation and Restoration Corps. |
