Grigori's rebellion has torn the Terran Empire apart.
For ten years his army of religious zealots have slowly continued their march across the empire, clawing one world after another away from the throne of Earth. Untold millions have died and there is no end to the war in sight.
That is, until the Imperial Ministry of State Security hatches a desperate attempt to end the war once and for all: Send a small team of special forces soldiers to penetrate rebel space and assassinate Grigori.
The team has little hope of success or survival.
They are the Coffin Troopers.
They fight the wars nobody else wants to.
The Frontier Corps are the Terran Empire's repository for failures, malcontents, criminals, and other people with nothing left to lose but to sign their names on the dotted line of a ten year contract for another shot at life.
But flung across the stars to face horrifying enemies, it may as well be a death sentence.
Pari Petrosyan is a grizzled veteran of the Corps. With only a few months left of her contract, she has her mind on her discharge papers. Her easy path on her way to freedom is interrupted when a new commander arrives, ready to launch a large-scale military offensive to finally end the conflict she had spent her entire career fighting.
Caught between the grinding war machines of the empire and the inhuman monstrosities known as the Resh, Pari has to try to survive if she ever hopes to be free.
The Terran Empire is torn apart by rebellion.
Far from the Imperial throne of Terra a religious zealot rises up to challenge the authority of Emperor Tigranes.
The task of subduing the rebellion before it grows out of hand falls to a disgraced imperial noble, Andranik Haduni. Exiled from his family and trapped within the confines of the Frontier Corps can he and his outgunned tank crew stop this challenge to imperial power before it sets the galaxy on fire?
