“Opening The X-Files” is Now Available on Amazon Kindle and Google Books!

Right now, I’m finishing the last of the 3 book “Complete Hammer’s Slammers” series of short stories, novellas and novels by Vietnam veteran, David Drake.
A compelling premise set in the future where a mercenary armor unit equipped with hover tanks and Armored Personnel Carries fight proxy wars for top dollars from aggrieved settlers.
Many similarities to the TO&E of The Dark Horse Cavalry, its soldiers, battles and skirmishes fought in that war so long ago.

Cool! Thanks for the recommendations, Kevin. We’ve similar tastes with sci-fi and military history. Finished the Bobiverse SF trilogy of sentient spacecraft by Dennis E. Taylor and am currently engrossed with Mark Bowen’s HUE 1968.
