The Last War Series

Earth is under attack. Twenty years after the American-Chinese war devastated our worlds, we finally have a tense peace. But legendary American Admiral Jack Mattis, on his inspection tour of the first joint American-Chinese space station, finds himself in the middle of the unthinkable: an alien invasion. Their ships are powerful, their weapons overwhelming. And in the confusion, our tentative peace with the Chinese is shaken to the core.

Earth is reeling. American alliances are shaking. And humanity's enemies rally. For six months after the failed alien attack, American Admiral Jack Mattis has been ordered to patrol the periphery, to stop more alien incursions - even though he knows the attackers weren't alien, but grotesque mutated super-humans from the future. A truth world governments publicly deny. And now an American scientist witnesses an experimental super-weapon gone awry at a top-secret genetic lab in deep space.

Fear ripples through human galactic society. Another ship travels from humanity's bleak future, targets a populated planet ... and lays it waste in a fiery apocalypse. Nothing survives, and the ship disappears. In the midst of the recovery, admiral Jack Mattis finds more questions than answers as he tracks down the enemy ship. But the most pressing question: why are these mutated humans from the future relentlessly attacking us? What do they want? And at what cost? And are these the same creatures created by the genetic research corporation exposed by Mattis on the planet Chrysalis? 

Admiral Jack Mattis thinks Spectre, humanity's nemesis, has been defeated. And he sacrificed the USS Midway, to do it. Now a US Navy pilot has gone missing. A terrorist group kidnaps a dozen infants. Admiral Mattis's own infant grandson is suddenly and mysteriously ill with a sickness no doctor can--or will--diagnose. No one can piece the puzzle together, until from a derelict future-human ship Mattis finally recovers an actual mutant human, come from the future to destroy Spectre himself.

His son is dead. His ship is dead. His career is dead. But Spectre is very much alive. And with his plans of galactic domination laid bare, Captain James Mattis must gather what allies he can to stop him. Admiral Pippa Spears and the HMS Caernarvon make a mysterious discovery in the wreckage of the USS Stennis, one that could change the outcome of the war.
