The Fight for Britania VI: The Wages of War (The Fight for Britannia Book 6)

From bestselling author Saxon Andrew comes the sixth novel in the Fight for Britannia Series-The Wages of War. The Stealth Civilization in Andromeda is now at war with the Civilization from the Triangulum Galaxy. Meanwhile, Humanity is preparing to eliminate the two aggressive Core Civilizations that destroyed New Melbourne and New Britannia. Mankind is also going to confront the Civilization in Triangulum and stop them from invading the Milky Way once the Stealth Civilization is defeated. The only thing that needs to happen for humanity's attacks to kick off is for the Triangulum Civilization to destroy the Stealth Civilization in Andromeda.

However, just before humanity launches its attacks, Taffy Henricks voices a concern she has about possible dangers to humanity that might be lurking in Andromeda. Suddenly, the possible existence of a highly advanced, dangerous civilization in Andromeda that represents a real threat to humanity has captured the attention of mankind's leaders and all attack plans are called off. Before anything can be done, Andromeda must be scouted and the possibility of a threat in that giant galaxy eliminated. What they discover in Andromeda is more mind boggling than anything they suspected. However, the real threat to mankind is much closer than Andromeda.

Excerpt: The Wages of War

. Robert was sitting next to Frank talking about the galaxy below them and he suddenly stopped talking. Frank saw his expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Robert turned to Justin, “I’m hearing something moving directly toward us.”
Justin turned to Cami and she said, “I don’t hear anything.”
Justin turned to Robert and he responded, “There is a large concentration of thoughts moving our way.”
“Are you sure?” Justin asked.
Robert’s brow furrowed and he nodded, “I sense twelve areas of thoughts. That means twelve ships are moving in our direction.”
“Janie, is anything showing up on the scanners?”
“No Sir. Everything is clear.”
Cami strained but just didn’t hear anything. After a few minutes, she began to hear…something. She turned to Justin, “I’m starting to hear it as well.”
“How are they detecting us?” Justin demanded.
Frank scowled, “It must be the communication beams that are being directed to our ship. We’re constantly lit up like a Christmas tree.”
“Move the ship Frank!”
“It won’t do us any good unless you shut down our communications; they can follow us if you don’t.”
“How do you know that?”
“Because they were moving our way before Boy Wonder here heard them.”
Cami could now hear the roar of distant thoughts and Robert looked up, “It’s like Frank says. I just found the commander of those ships and they’re detecting our communications.”
Cami looked at Robert and shook her head. Finding a single thought in the distant roar was impossible. Frank looked at Justin, “If they can hear us, they can hear Charlotte and Graylin!”
Justin turned to Janie, “Are they inside our telepathic scanners?”
“Not yet,” Janie answered.
Justin struggled until Frank said sternly, “SHUT IT DOWN SIR!!”
Justin thought over the communicator, “All ships, shut down communications and return to the Griffin immediately! This is a direct order.” Justin turned to Cami, “Notify the Griffin the scouts are returning and then shut down our communications."
