In 2398 DC, POTUS authorizes his predecessor Alexander Moore to
lead a small hand-picked crew on an expeditionary mission to follow bread
crumbs left behind ages ago by Senator Sienna Madira. The Marine veteran and former White House
occupant believes recently found Separatist outposts tie to something much
bigger and more dangerous lurking in space than even Copernicus the AI who led the horrific Separatists civil war.
On their recon mission, Moore and his team track
bases defended by multiple mechas left behind by Copernicus in case the AI
failed to eradicate humanity.
Increasingly the evidence points to Copernicus having had a deadlier ally
to complete the final solution of species extinction. Moore and his fellow marines plan to destroy
the enemy before this adversary deploys their annihilation of mankind assault.
The fourth Tau Ceti Agenda military science
fiction (see One Good Soldier, One Day on Mars and The Tau Ceti Agenda) is an action-packed outer space thriller based on
fascinating twists that spin Travis S. Taylor’s saga into
an astonishingly different orbit.
Although the Bush Doctrine of first strike to keep the battle in the
enemy’s territory rather than your own seems foolish without substantive data
affirming Madira’s contention as this could start an unnecessary war, this
entry is a thrilling twisting tale.
