Bobby B is given a choice: death or the Army. His choice leads him to become a Timer - a group of soldiers so disposable that only about 10% survive a ten year tour. Because the corporations that run society value property more than life, they don't even give them real bullets. Timers are only issued plastic flechettes so they don't damage precious buildings and equipment. Bobby and a few other Timers join together to make their own squad, Beebi's Basteds, which does things their own unorthodox way but still manages to keep them alive. As the missions get harder, so do the men. They work their way up the military ranks faster than ever - giving their elite squad extra attention - good and bad. As they gear up for their biggest mission yet, none of the Basteds could imagine where their squad would end up - space. A military science-fiction thriller that will keep you glued to the pages. Breach of Contract - The Shattered Stars is only book one in a riveting new series by accomplished author Vance Huxley.

Autorenporträt
Vance Huxley lives out in the countryside in Lincolnshire, England. He has spent a busy life working in many different fields - including the building and rail industries, as a workshop manager, trouble-shooter for an engineering firm, accountancy, cafe proprietor, and graphic artist. He also spent time in other jobs, and is proud of never being dismissed, and only once made redundant. Eventually he found his Noeline, but unfortunately she died much too young. To help with the aftermath, Vance tried writing though without any real structure. As an editor and beta readers explained the difference between words and books, he tried again. Now he tries to type as often as possible in spite of the assistance of his cats, since his legs no longer work well enough to allow anything more strenuous. An avid reader of sci-fi, fantasy and adventure novels, his writing tends towards those genres.
