Chimera Company

Sergeant Osu Sybutu of the Legion had a simple mission. Take five men and travel unobserved to a location in the capital where he would deliver a coded phrase to a contact. Simple, that is, except for the fact that there was a war going on, and all the different factions he had to pass by on the way would cheerfully shoot him on sight. And that was only if the planet didn’t kill him first. 

With his alien co-pilot at his side and a grin stretching across his face, Captain Fitz keeps one jump ahead of his creditors and one jump behind fabulous illicit riches. He likes it that way, even if he wouldn’t mind getting the riches…some day. Now he is chasing the biggest payoff of his career, and he’s hired a new team of marines to help win it. They call themselves Chimera Company, but they want him to be someone else.

Cut off from the rest of Chimera Company, Lily Hjon and her Militia comrades are sent to Eiylah-Bremah, a totalitarian world where failure to report a crime earns the same penalty as committing it. Following her orders means supporting a regime that sickens her, but joining the rebellion would mean fighting for a group that could be even worse.
