Publisher's Summary:
Metzada is an inhospitable planet of Epsilon Indi whose inhabitants -- most descendants from refugees forced to leave Israel -- can survive only because its men are highly skilled mercenaries, Metzadas one export that brings in revenue. When young Ari Hanavi freezes in combat twice, he has one last chance to survive and even become a hero. Scenes of battle, military command and operations are expertly portrayed in this novel about a young man who must overcome his terror while dealing with his fellow soldiers and fighting an enemy force. Set in the same world as Not for Glroy, which David Drake called a swift-paced, brutal, excellent political novel about the soldier of the future.

Brilliance audio has made a significant error with this MP3 ...
Brilliance audio has made a significant error with this MP3 disc. It is labelled correctly however, the content is by another author and the performer is another person.I have returned 4 of these discs to date. The last time I was told by Amazon and Brilliance to wait 7 or 8 days and re-order. I did this and the irony is they sent me back one of the discs that I had returned. when I initially ordered this audiobook I marked the case to keep track of the order to listen in. They even put a sticker on the case indicating that it had been inspected! Certainly not for accuracy!
An Interesting Future
The book embodies two interesting concepts: the Jews have been driven not only from Israel but from Earth by the Islamic empire (aka caliphate); and the protagonist, with an extended family of well known and highly regard military members and has just graduated from boot camp, sees himself as a coward ... even before he enters combat for the first time. The author lays the basis for a very interesting multi-volume future.
