By Fire and Sword (Infinity the Game)

Across the front lines of Norstralia, the forces of PanOceania prepare for a counter-offensive in this next book from the world of Infinity

War rages across the surface of Paradiso. The Combined Army of the Evolved Intelligence advances steadily across the surface of the planet, seizing territory in bloody campaigns against the divided factions of the Human Sphere. Across the front lines of Norstralia, the forces of PanOceania prepare for a counter-offensive.

At the tip of the counterstrike are the armored knights of the Military Orders. In command of one such unit is Gabriele De Fersen; an aging veteran of decades of combat, infamous across the Hospitaller Order for the stubborn determination that has brought successes on the battlefield, and the scorn of his superiors off it.

De Fersen and his team are tasked with an objective far behind enemy lines, avoiding the patrols of the Morat Aggression Force that scour PanOceania’s territory to the west of Zulu Point. Striking deep in the heart of the enemy’s infrastructure to prove that humanity is indeed on the offensive is just the beginning of De Fersen’s war against the alien invaders. Backed up by an inexperienced team including Hawkins, an increasingly reckless young knight who is torn apart by his feelings over the war, and Stanescu, an underperforming combat doctor with his own past and score to settle with the Morats, the vanguard of the Military Orders wage their own war against the brutal alien invaders.
