Major Lewis Cayce will need to use every weapon in his arsenal to keep his stranded men alive on a deadly alternate Earth in this gripping new adventure set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Destroyermen series.

It is 1847, and almost a full year after being shipwrecked on another, far stranger and more dangerous Earth on their way to fight Santa Anna in the Mexican-American War, Lewis Cayce and his small group of artillerymen, infantrymen, and dragoons have made friends in the Yucatán, helped build an army, and repulsed the first efforts of the blood-drenched Holy Dominion to wipe their new friends out.   
As an even more radical cult of Blood Priests arises and begins to pursue its own path to power, the Dominion can’t let its defeat stand. It must crush the heretics and expel them from the land it has claimed.   
Fortunately, Lewis Cayce is a professional. He understands defense can only result in a stalemate at best, and a stalemate with the more populous Dominion will only lead to defeat in the end. The lucky few will be enslaved. The rest will be sacrificed in the most horrific way imaginable. The only hope his new allies have is to win—and to do that, his little army must attack the most powerful and diabolical enemy on the planet in its own territory. Achieving victory will take all Lewis’s imagination, the courage and trust of his soldiers—and all the round shot and canister his tiny band of artillerymen can slam out.

      Anderson’s steady second volume (after Purgatory’s Shore) in the unfolding saga of 19th century U.S. and Mexican troops trapped on an alternate Earth populated by dinosaurs and a bloodthirsty cult takes the focus off prehistoric beasts and onto supply chains. Col. Lewis Cayce, a former artillery captain heading off to fight in the Mexican-American War, now commands a polyglot force of U.S., Mexican, and Indigenous soldiers allied against the vicious Holy Dominion, which is falling further under the sway of its own fanatic Blood Priests. Deciding the best defense is to take the war to the Dominion, Cayce sets in motion a variety of military missions to retrieve a captured U.S. warship, disrupt the Dominion’s warriors, and outflank their best general and the only significant army still in the field against Cayce’s troops. Anderson loads the narrative with intricate wartime logistics and the minute technical details of Civil War era weaponry. He presents a clear moral choice and allows those characters who are able to find common ground to reap the rewards of their tolerance and acceptance of difference (though not of cannibalism), if not easily, then without undue struggle. Series fans will be pleased with this gripping yarn. Agent: Russell Galen, Scovil Galen Ghosh Literary.
