Fields of Fire
The time has come to take the fight to the Lankies.
Mars has been under Lanky control for more than a year. Since then, the depleted forces of Earth’s alliances have rebuilt their fleets, staffing old warships with freshly trained troops. Torn between the need to beat the Lankies to the punch and taking enough time to put together an effective fighting force, command has decided to strike now.
Once again, seasoned veterans Andrew and Halley find themselves in charge of green troops and at the sharp tip of the spear as the combined military might of Earth goes up against the Lankies. But if there’s one constant in war, it’s that no battle plan survives first contact with the enemy... and the Lankies want to hold on to Mars as badly as humanity wants to reclaim it.

Marko Kloos
Marko Kloos has built a reputation in the world of military science fiction by weaving complex narratives where war, politics, and the human condition collide against the backdrop of interstellar conflict. A writer whose career is as multifaceted as his stories, Kloos' journey from his native Germany to the United States is one of both personal reinvention and creative discovery.
Growing up in the small town of Münster, Germany, Kloos developed an early love for science fiction, delving into the works of authors who would later inspire his own storytelling. His first passion, however, wasn't writing—it was military service. He spent time as a junior NCO in the West German military, which would later seep into his stories, giving them a grounded, authentic touch. After the military, Kloos tried his hand at several professions, including bookselling and IT administration, before settling into life as a full-time writer.
