Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - He passed the scan that should have exposed him. Now he must win a war in another man's name.Ethan Hawk is a farm boy from Arcadia and a former petty officer who commanded the heavy cruiser Excalibur for two campaigns while wearing Captain Elias Thorne's uniform in the elite Special Operations Service. Back on Earth, a five-minute biometric scan will prove he is a fraud.But Thorne is alive. He has spent months hunting a revolutionary cell that has burrowed deep inside the fleet, and he needs Ethan to keep wearing his name far from Earth, where a visible Thorne will make the traitors nervous. 'Keep my name clean, kid. I'll want it back.'Ethan sails for the southeastern frontier and leaves Dr. Kate Haliday behind in a naval hospital, her hands burned, her dark matter research suddenly the prize everyone wants. Days later, the alien Krug land on the jungle world of Galadriel and seize a half-built spaceport in a single morning.With a patchwork squadron that has never fought together, eight ships and too few missiles, Ethan leads a night raid down the Slot, a narrow channel through an asteroid belt, straight into the heart of the enemy landing. Every choice carries a price. Every victory tightens the noose. Someone aboard is talking to the enemy. His executive officer has kept a ledger since day one. A suspicious admiral has read everything Elias Thorne ever signed. And out in the dark, the Krug are speaking a name no one in the fleet should know.His own.By Any Other Way is a tense, character-driven military space opera in the tradition of classic naval fiction, where night battles are won with nerve and missiles, every command decision carries a real cost, and the most dangerous enemy may be the lie wearing a captain's stripes.Book 4 of the By Any Other Name saga, from the author of the Henry Gallant Saga. Begin with By Any Other Name, then follow Ethan through By Any Other Means and By Any Other Path.…
