WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE . . .
With the Earth in the path of the rapacious Posleen, the peaceful and friendly races of the Galactic Federation offer their resources to help the backward Terrans—for a price.
Humanity now has three worlds to defend.
As Earth's armies rush into battle and special operations units scout alien worlds, the humans begin to learn a valuable lesson: You can protect yourself from your enemies, but may the Lord save you from your allies.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
John Ringo had visited 23 countries and attended 14 schools by the time he graduated high school. This left him with a wonderful appreciation of the oneness of humanity and a permanent aversion to foreign food. He chose to study marine biology and really liked it. Unfortunately the pay was for beans. So now he manages a quality control database and the pay is much better. He hopes to someday upgrade to SQL Server. At that point life will be complete.
With his bachelor years spent in the airborne, cave diving, rock-climbing, rappelling, hunting, spear-fishing, and sailing, the author is now happy to let other people risk their necks. He prefers to read (and of course write) science fiction, raise Arabian horses, dandle his kids and watch the grass grow. Someday he may even cut it. But not today. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe he'll just let the horses.

Product ReviewI heard about this from FOX News, as a recommended read, purchased the series in hardcopy first, enjoyed them immensely, recommended them to my son to start him on Science Fiction, and lost them to him. Now I am loosing my Heinlein to him. Repurchsed the series in e-book format, so I have them all the time with my PDA. I would highly recommend any of John Ringo's works.

Product ReviewI have enjoyed this series immensely, with the exception of Cally's War. I highly reccomend them to anyone who likes military SF. Be warned, they can get a bit gory now and then.
