Semper Mars
The Year is 2040.
The Marines have landed on Mars to guard the unearthed secrets of an ancient and dangerous alien race: Ourselves.

Scientists have discovered something astonishing in the subterranean ruins of a sprawling Martian city: startling evidence of an alternative history that threatens to split humanity into opposing factions and plunge the Earth into chaos and war. The USMC -- a branch of a military considered, until just recently, to be obsolete -- has dispatched the Marine Mars Expeditionary Force, a thirty-man weapons platoon, to the Red Planet to protect American civilians and interest with lethal force if necessary.

Because great powers are willing to devastate a world in order to keep an ancient secret buried. Because something that was hidden in the Martian dust for half a million years has just been unearthed . . . something that calls into question every belief that forms the delicate foundation of civilization . . .

Something inexplicably human.

Semper Mars


Chapter One

2040

Wednesday, 9 May

Cycler Spacecraft Polyakov,
three days from Mars Transfer
1517 hours GMT (shipboard time)

This wasn't the first time the Marines had ventured into space, not by a long shot. On February 20, 1962, Colonel John Glenn, United States Marine Corps, had become the first American in orbit, thundering into space atop a primitive Atlas-D booster. Of course, Navy astronauts were quick to point out that Alan Shepard, a former US Navy aviator and test pilot, had been the first American in space nine months earlier, even if his suborbital flight -- with a full five minutes in zero G -- had also been the shortest spaceflight in history.

Major Mark Alan Garroway did not think of himself as an astronaut, even though he'd been in space for seven months, was drawing astronaut's flight pay, and was watching now as Mars drifted past the command center's main viewport. He was a passenger -- in effect, he was extremely expensive cargo -- aboard the Polyakov, one of four cycler spacecraft set to shuttling between Earth a ... read full excerpt from: Semper Mars ebook

EXCELLENT READ! 09/20/2009
Reviewer: J.R.H. from Los Angeles, CA US
This is a very enthralling book. Set in the far future it is a very realistic view of human nature and how no level of technology can affect certain aspects of our group psyche. Semper fi to all who read the Heritage Trilogy!

Reviewer: RGK from Crewe, NA GB
This is the first novel in the Heritage Trilogy. Although the plot is good, the next 2 novels in the series are more enjoyable. All 3 are difficult to put down once started. Highly recommend the series.
