Summary

What could test a marine more than all-out war? The Scourge.

A simple distress beacon.... 

A mining colony in the outer reaches....

Supposedly another routine deployment for Mike Barton of the Combined States Marine Corps, but what they find on the surface is unlike anything anyone had ever encountered. 

Horribly wounded in a battle with an unknown quantity, Barton only survives through a chance encounter with two special operators. As if the skirmish wasn’t enough, what comes next will be beyond his imagination. 

Thrown into a joint task force with troops from the New Russian Confederacy, Barton must return to the colony, face what had be-fallen him there, and investigate what killed everyone. 

The investigation will have to wait because the Scourge won’t. The fight for his life continues and his chances are slim.

Devon C Ford is a Genius

I have no idea how Devon C Ford does it but just keeps on writing simply BRILLIANT books. This just gets you from the beginning and takes on a wonderful journey rhat leaves you wanting more. Books 2 and 3 already pre ordered. Its that good. James Patrick Cronin once again does he does best, just nails it.

Action packed and fun!

Full of military action, alien goo and quick talking marines and special ops!
Brilliant narration also brought the book to life! Can't wait to see what is next for Barton!

military sci fi at its best this guys going places

Scourge:

100 % honesty. Started it didn't love the narrator didn't love the story. Thought ow no .

Just finished probably one of my favorite books

Actually the Brilliant narrator fits perfectly! An action packed story hardly covers it bloddy loved it!

Russian roulette with a automatic!! Great laughs / A serious back talking marine

Shame on me for the doubt!

Can't wait for more odin

One of the best

loved this story, the characters are funny, the military(ish) humour is spot on.

what I really liked though were the little head nods to real world special operations endeavours.

a great touch. roll on book 2
