This final novel in the series finds Colonel Andrew Keane and the soldiers of his 35th Maine preparing to wage war against the alien hordes for the last time.

It has been 10 years since a group of American Civil War soldiers was swept away from the battlefields of Earth to a distant world--where the only place for a human is as a slave to an alien race. But even though they are far from home, the members of the Union 35th Main regiment still embody the radical ideas of democracy and freedom--and they''re willing to lay down their lives rather than sound retreat!

ALEXANDER THE GREAT. NAPOLEON. THE 47 RONIN. LONG DEAD, BUT THE FUTURE STILL RIDES ON THEIR SUCCESSES AT WAR! First there was war, then there were wargames, growing more and more realistic until the games themselves surpassed war as mankind''s most popular sport. But with no blood, guts, or glory, boredom began to set in and strategy lost its edge. Something was needed to bring fresh excitement to an old, old game. And so the past was mined for the greatest warriors and generals history had to offer: Napoleon, Alexander, the forty-seven Ronin, assassins from ancient Persia--all brilliant at either combat or at tactics and strategy. It was just a game--until mock war turned real on an unimaginable scale, and only those legendary warriors could turn the tide... THE GAMESTER WARS: The Alexandrian Ring The Assassin Gambit The Napoleon Wager by William R. Forstchen, coauthor with Newt Gingrich of 1945

It''s 150 years in the future, and times have changed. The long-stalled space program finally went private and got off the ground.

Civil war could be the result--threatening to tear the elite Star Voyager Academy apart.

A startling series that merges history with intrepid military science fiction in a fresh and energetic package, this latest edition proves that Forstchen''s talent and possibilities are limitless. "Some of the best adventure writing in years!"--Science Fiction Chronicle.

A Union regiment marches aboard a transport ship only to be buffeted through space and time and shipwrecked in an alien land, where these Civil War soldiers introduce unheard-of ideas of freedom, equality, and democracy.

The last great hope. For a millennia after the accident, Earth lay cold and still, its small population punished by the dismal climate, harried by the plague, and impoverished by frequent bloody wars. Then, unexpectedly, the oppressed had reason to hope, for a leader stalked the frozen seas with great ice fleets and new ideas. . . In terrible battles he vanquished the forces of tyranny and brought promise of renewal to an otherwise miserable world. But nothing was quite as it seemed -- either to Michael Ormson or his followers.
