Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy military sci-fi that doesn't take itself too seriously and balances humour with genuine heart.
  • You love ensemble casts where misfits and underdogs become something special through good leadership and camaraderie.
  • You're a fan of M*A*S*H or similar shows that blend comedy with surprisingly touching moments about found families.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want hard sci-fi with rigorous worldbuilding and zero comedic tone.
  • You prefer gritty, dark military fiction without wisecracks and lighter moments.
  • You're looking for a standalone novel rather than the first in a series you'll want to continue.

About this book

After being court-martialed by the Space Legion for ordering the strafing of a treaty-signing ceremony, multimillionaire Willard Phule receives his punishment: command of Omega Company, a unit of misfits stationed on Haskin's Planet, a mining settlement on the edge of settled space. Phule uses his personal wealth and people-management skills to transform the company into a cohesive unit. He arranges a competition with the Regular Army for an honorary contract, with the Army sending elite troops to participate. Phule's company employs unconventional tactics to compete against these seasoned soldiers.
