Unleash the Fury!
Zhikotse. Shallingsport. Louvain. Sacred fields of battle on far-flung worlds where warriors of the Imperial Cadre spent blood and lives defending human civilization. Alicia DeVries was there; she led the charge. Her reward Betrayal by a deceitful empire. Retirement to obscurity.
Now Alicia is the only survivor of a brutal attack on her frontier-world family. Not since the mighty Achilles has the ancient spirit of the Fury Tisiphone taken up residence inside a human being. But not since Achilles has a warrior so skilled, so implacable, and possessing so much battle sense sprung up among the mass of humankind. Hero of the Empire. Holder of the Banner of Terra.
There is a blood price to be paid. The Fury has awakened.
An elite warrior in a line stretching to the U.S. Marines of old Earth is born and comes into her power in a mega-novel of heroism and adventure by multiple New York Times best-seller David Weber, creator of the Honor Harrington saga!

Product ReviewI'm not sure why, but I've always found this story very compelling. Does a great job of keeping an enhanced person still very human, and does a great job of integrating the "otherness" into her psyche. An original, page-turning storyline.

Product ReviewOne of the most exciting Sci-Fi books I've ever read. I couldn't put it down! I've read many books by Weber, and enjoyed them all, but this one was special. Far more exciting than the Honor Harrington books.

Product ReviewA good read, and a great re-read. I'm not too terribly certain which half I prefer, the first or the second.
Ever stop to think how it is that David owns some of our favorite characters? Honor Harrington, Roger Ramius Sergei Whatever McClintock, Bahzell Bahnakson, and now Alicia Diedre De Vries? Thank you, David, for some of my best friends.Posted on
