Behold: Humanity!: Assault on Fortress Sol (Behold, Humanity! #7)

The Cygnus-Orion Galactic Arm Spur is engulfed in warfare. A four way brawl with its roots a hundred million years prior, with the Lanaktallan Unified Council on one side, a strange invader from a dying universe on another, the Precursor Autonomous War Machines, strengthened by alliances, coming back into the fight, and, of course, the Terran Confederacy of Aligned Systems.

The war has spread to dozens, hundreds of different systems with no signs of stopping. Each side is grimly digging in for the long haul. The vile Atrekna, invaders from another dimension, view the entire universe as their possession as it is within their ability to quickly overwhelm an entire universe if they are not stopped early. The Precursor Autonomous War Machines have banded together to face off against the Terran Confederacy, realizing that they face a foe like no other they have other locked weapons with.

The Terran Confederacy's war machine marches forward, with sinister projects in the works that will change the fate of the entire Galactic Arm Spur.

However, the Lanaktallan launched a desperate plan a year prior and that plan is about to come to fruition.

The question Is the fruit poisoned?
