France has a reputation for revolutions. Some of them have been very bloody. Others have been little more than official rewritings of their constitutions. The rise of the Third French Empire was one of the bloody revolutions. Between five and ten million people fled or died before it was over, almost all of them immigrants. Most returned home after their neighborhoods burned via free boat rides across the Mediterranean Sea. The most radical stayed, fought, and died.
I know I talk a lot about the stuff I do when times get tough. But my life isn’t all going from bad to bad, and there’s a lot more good times than bad. As much as people lament the times, times are real good right now. I spend a lot more time dancing with pretty girls in small bars to good music than I do dealing with the uncivilized sides of society.
Twilight had been born to destroy computers. Nothing made her as happy as seeing entire networks burn. Then Dixie decided they were sisters. Twilight resisted at first. She had no idea who this jumped up cheerleader was. And she had a reputation as a marauding Rogue AI to maintain. But when another Rogue AI began attacking Dixie, Twilight had to step in. She wasn’t defending Dixie of course. She was protecting her territory. Or so she told herself.
The War started with a Shang attack that devastated our industrial might and killed millions. It took two years to build Third Fleet into the juggernaut that could take The War back to them. Third Fleet started at Epsilon Reticuli.
Authors Note – Angel Flight is now re-released as a corrected second edition in preparation for the release of Angel Strike.
France was a nation in chaos following the Paris Bombings. The government had lost the trust of the people. Islamic activists enforced Sharia Law in their expanding enclaves. Las Vegas odds were 2 to 1 in favor of France falling altogether. Then Prince Napoleon flew into Charles de Gaulle International Airport, smiled to the cameras, and said that France’s best days were not behind her. It was a masterful performance, recorded for future French school children to see every year on the anniversary of the return of the House of Bonaparte. It was what a desperate people needed to believe.
