Stark's Crusade

Stark's Crusade is the third and final book in a military science fiction trilogy by John G. Hemry, a former U.S. Navy officer. The series follows Sergeant Ethan Stark, a celebrated soldier whom the government sends to the moon to recover territory that America considers its own. The story is set in a future shaped by the aftermath of the Cold War, when America emerged as the world's only superpower and its economic dominance pushed other nations and corporations to build colonies and factories in space. The earlier books, Stark's War and Stark's Command, establish that the conflict is driven less by peace or justice than by profit and public appeal.

In this final installment, Stark has become the acting commander of the American rebel forces on the moon. He now faces the United Nations, which has declared him an outlaw, as well as the full might of the American military and a mutinous contingent within his own ranks.
