Dedication
To my wife, Cyndi; my son, Alexander; and my daughter, Victoria Rose. This is also dedicated to Central Michigan University, my alma mater and keeper of many fond memories. To my parents; my incredibly stupid dog, Sandy; and ... (show all)everyone else out there who tolerates this weird hobby of mine.
To my friends Clan Rivenburg, Clan Huntt, and Clan Gramache. Thanks for coming along on this little hike as I got to tangle with the Jade Falcons.
Finally, to the fans out there who keep BattleTech alive and thriving. BattleTech is not just a novel series or a suite of software titles. It's a shared universe that perpetuates itself. It's a soap opera, war movie, sci-fi extravaganza.
First words
Leftenant General Archer Christifori could barely make out the building in the pre-dawn light, and the rain spattering against the windshield of the muddy hoverjeep didn't help matters any.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)To put it bluntly, Archon, I believe that Archer Christifori is coming for you."
