In a Legion gone lax, Colonel Bill Booly steps on important toes and is quickly assigned to the worst post in the galaxy. Fort Mosby, Earth is home of the 13th Half-Brigade, a collection of Legion rogues and rejects.

Having stopped a mutiny against Earth's government, General Bill Booly and his troops face an even greater challenge: a battle for the future of every living being in the universe, against a fanatical human and his killer technology.
