The Steel Bitch is back! The Andromeda trilogy is being reissued, and here’s what a Goodreads reviewer had to say about Andromeda' s Fall: “Spurts of action intermixed with worldbuilding and character development keep the pages turning at a steady pace, and the ending is perfect.

New York Times bestselling author William C. Dietz returns to his riveting Legion of the Damned™ series, which Publishers Weekly hailed as “exciting and suspenseful…. [with] real punch,” in this tenth and final installment. There was a time when the Confederacy of Sentient beings ruled the galaxy. A time when the Legion of the Damned kept the peace. But no more. Autocrats rose and fell. Now mankind is ruled by a xenophobe named Cassidian, other races have retreated, and an interstellar war is brewing. The kind of war the Legion used to fight. But where are the legionnaires? “Retired,” some say. “Dead,” according to others. There are rebels, however, men and women who oppose Cassidian. But they need warships, and warships require pilots, and that’s why they purchase Copernicus Synn from a slaver and give him a job. To succeed, Synn will have to deal with pirates, hijack spaceships and battle Cassidian’s forces. But Synn will have help from a beautiful gladiator, and if he can find them—The Legion of the Damned. |

From William C. Dietz The complete Legion of the Damned TM collection begins with the Andromeda trilogy-which consists of Andromeda's Fall, Andromeda's Choice, and Andromeda's War. That's followed by the break-through novel Legion of the Damned, The Final Battle (which wasn't), By Force of Arms, By Blood Alone, For More Than Glory, For Those Who Fell, When All Seems Lost, When Duty Calls, and A Fighting Chance. From the Ashes will be the last, and I hope, the best of the LOTD series. I'm happy to say that with the exceptions of For Those Who Fell, and A Fighting Chance, both of all of the books are available on amazon. |

With the novel CRICKETS 2, New York Times bestselling author William C. Dietz returns to his military science fiction roots with a sequel to CRICKETS.
The insectoid Prax landed on Earth approximately 12,000 years ago and immediately went into hiding. Now that it seems safe to do so, the ravenous carnivores have awoken from their long slumber, to feast on what they call “The Meats.” Meaning humans.
Humans are good at war. But so are the Prax. And, as book two begins, the situation is dire. Approximately 2.8 billion humans have been killed. Russia has gone dark. Central America has been overrun. And India is a “farm” from which the aliens harvest roughly 65,000 people a day. A number equal to India’s birthrate. And that, according to the CIA, is what the so-called Crickets have in mind for the U.S.
That’s the situation when something completely unforeseen occurs, and event that shocks both the Prax and the humans, and puts both on the defensive.
Marine Corps Captain Lester Evans will fight the menace, while FEMA manager Cassie Lang will save as many lives as she can. But will their efforts, and those of many others, be enough to save mankind?

With the novel CRICKETS, New York Times bestselling author William C. Dietz returns to his military science fiction roots.
When CIA Special Operations officer, Major Jim Carter, is sent to the town of Serene, Texas he’s still grieving for Agent Cathy Abbey, who was not only a fellow agent--but the woman he loved.
And the woman he chose to shoot rather than let Al-Shabaab insurgents abduct her. A decision that haunts him.
When Carter arrives in Serene, it’s to discover that all one hundred and twenty-one citizens of the town have been murdered by insectoid creatures assumed to be exterrestrials.
None of the authorities know how the aliens arrived on Earth, or what their intentions are, but one thing is for sure… They’re hungry. And they like meat.
During the initial investigation Carter meets army officer and entomologist Anne Blake, who dissects one of the aliens. That’s the beginning of a relationship which will be severely tested as Blake strives to learn everything there is to know about the Prax, the extraterrestrials strive to kill her, and Carter battles to keep the scientist alive.
Millions die, governments fall, and the future of the human race is on the line. CRICKETS.
