Pavlov's Dogs

Pavlov's Dogs, a squad of Russian Confederation spetsnaz, have been tasked with transporting a highly classified briefcase across the world of Syrene; a backwater system torn by civil infighting.

The Russian Confederation, the eastern counterparts to the United Earth, want the contents of the briefcase. The Separatists want it too. Pavlov's Dogs are charging headlong into massive shift in the balance of power in the Liv system: the Khorsky Incident.

The Swarm are returning, the United Earth fleets will burn, but before war returns to humanity, the Khorsky Incident has to play itself out, and Pavlov's Dogs have a part in it.

Everything is about to change, and it all begins on Syrene.

A short story set in the Legacy Fleet universe, sixteen years before the events of Legacy Fleet. A prequel to the novel Hammerfall.
