Legionnaire Eternal: Galaxy's Edge: Dark Operator, Book 6

Summary

Who stands as the model of the ideal legionnaire?

Who in the storied history of the greatest fighting force the galaxy’s ever known shines as their brightest beacon? Who is the template for legionnaire virtue, the person that every leej who ever wore the bucket strives to be?

Only one legionnaire qualifies: General Rex.

The general has become more myth than man. More fable than real. The Legion he led to victory in the Savage Wars followed his example of warrior perfection and absolute duty unto death to save humanity while painting glory across the stars. The Legion was his legacy; it cemented the legend of Tyrus Rex.

But Rex also founded another, far less well-known organization: a small unit of shadowy covert operators who left only his invisible signature as their calling card.

Dark Ops.

Kel Turner’s achievements in Dark Ops could be the stuff of legend too—were they known to any but the few who witnessed them. So when the most respected operator in their ranks leaves the Legion, no one is more puzzled than the very figures of rectitude and honor he draws inspiration from daily: the flesh-and-blood operators Kel admires more than Rex himself.

Rex was the perfect legionnaire. But in a galaxy missing its savior, there’s one dark operator worthy of inheriting the title of deadliest weapon in the Legion arsenal.

And his name is Kel Turner.
