From the international bestselling Author, Saxon Andrew, comes the third book in the Assassin’s Guild Saga, Rage of the Brotherhood. The war in the Large Magellanic Cloud has ended and the survivors are headed home to a heroes welcome from a grateful planet. The welcoming parade is ready for their appearance and celebration is the word of the day.
But before the parade can start, the Admirals of the returning fleet are called into an emergency meeting in Fleet Admiral Montana’s conference room. A colony warship has been attacked and destroyed in the Andromeda Galaxy by a religion that was forced to leave Earth a thousand years in the past. This civilization calls itself the Brotherhood and the newly established colonies that fled to Andromeda to escape the Alien invasions are in great danger if the Brotherhood discovers their existence. If that happens, the new colonies and all of humanity in the Milky Way will face the Rage of the Brotherhood.

Excerpt: The Rage of the Brotherhood

Jee saw something coming into view on the forward wall-monitor; a shape was emerging out of empty space that was stunning. He stood up from his chair and saw a warship emerge into view that defied description. Huge or gigantic did not do that ship justice. The Sha Class of warships were much larger than the Epy Class, measuring 400 yards long. This ship made his squadron look like a school of minnows beside a whale. Its hull had three colored bands rotating continuously around it, yellow, blue, and purple. The bands were flashing as they rotated and Jee didn’t have to ask Lori to know they were being produced by a powerful energy source.

Suddenly, the vessel fired a blaster bolt above his squadron that was twenty miles wide and it continued to fire for twenty seconds before disappearing. The Voice from the giant spoke again, “You are nothing to us.”

“I’m surprised you haven’t destroyed us anyway,” Jee said softly.

“I thought about doing that,” the voice replied. “However, doing it outside our borders would send the wrong message to those civilizations currently fighting the Invaders. Those loud mouth Crayens have told everyone that will listen about your ships saving them numerous times.”

“So, you want the Invaders destroyed?” Jee asked.

“Yes, we do.”

“With warships like that, you could do it without needing anyone else.”

The voice chuckled, “You’ve not seen the Brotherhood at their finest. They crash their large and small ships into any vessel they can’t defeat with their weapons. We see no need to incur any damage, since we have other civilizations, and now you, doing the job for us.” Jee was silent and the voice added, “We will wait to decide what to do about you and those hew planets until after the Invaders are defeated.”

“What happens then?” Jee asked.

“We’ll decide if you live or die. You have one minute to remove your ships from here and at that time, I will open fire on any that remain.”

Jee punched the general frequency button on his console, “ALL SHIPS! FULL REVERSE AT MAXIMUM SPEED!!”

Mamani jerked the gravity-thruster handle fully to the rear and the Black Hills seemed to disappear instantly. “Keep that ship on the monitor, Lori!!” Jee ordered. The ship reappeared and a Jee saw it fire a blaster toward Rachael’s unit…but they were out of its range.

The voice laughed again and said, “Ahhh…now that was surprising! I intended to make an example of some of your ships, but you can fly faster than I anticipated. I won’t make that mistake again."
