Battle Beyond Earth: Desolation. The eighth instalment in an epic sci-fi series that tells of humanity's desperate struggle to survive in an uncertain and war-torn future.

Colonel Taylor’s mission to rescue POWs had been a resounding success, but it had revealed horrors beyond his imagining. Worst of all, he could not rescue the one he cared most for - Alita. Bolormaa, the terrifying enemy queen that he could never hope to defeat, is coming. And Taylor knows he must face her once again. Yet, the genius Milo Rivers has provided a new hope. Hope in the form of technology far surpassing anything humanity could have dreamed to possess in the next few hundred years.

This technology is not fully ready, but time is running out for the Alliance. Even worse, as the final confrontation draws near, one of Taylor’s strongest allies flees without explanation. Can Taylor find a way to defeat the seemingly unstoppable Bolormaa before she destroys the Alliance for good? The stakes have never been higher, as the battle unfolds over his homeworld - Earth.

Battle Beyond Earth is a futuristic sci-fi action adventure sequel. It is also a stand-alone story. This will give a new perspective and storyline to those listeners who followed Mitch Taylor's exploits in the best-selling series Battle Earth.
