He watched a tiny dot in one corner grow slowly, and heard the unnecessary words of his Lieutenant-Commander, Clemens:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Observation Officer reports enemy craft sighted, Sir.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Very good,\" acknowledged McPartland. \"Have Lieutenant Parek compute their speed and course.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClemens spoke softly into the intra-ship phone, and Commander Jon McPartland returned momentarily to his thoughts. His square jaw was set as though cast in bronze, with hard muscles machined into its contour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere was the enemy-the unknown, the alien, who spoke only with destruction! This was the ship that had destroyed System patrols; later a full battle fleet of the Solar System's most powerful space fighters. The interceptors had been unable to establish communication of any sort; and they were blasted into fiery chunks of space debris before getting close enough to use their own guns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Well, here they are, Clemens,\" the Commander said aloud, \"and getting uncomfortably close to the System. It looks like they're some other System's dominant intelligence, and we've got planets they want.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Yes, sir,\" said the other, \"and here we are, with the fastest, most heavily armed space fighter ever built-in the System.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"In the Universe,\" snapped McPartland. His full lips curved into a grim smile. \"Under sealed orders which every citizen from Pluto to Mercury knows are: 'Destroy this ship-or it conquers our System.'\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49415864123696,"sku":"BDgu4m","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/gu4m-Square-cover.jpg?v=1771289830","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-gu4m","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
