The Lightning War: Rising Storm

On the edge of human space, the aging destroyer Błyskawica is a symbol of Polonia Prime's resilience – a forgotten colony just trying to survive. But when a routine patrol led by junior officer Maria Roszak stumbles upon a derelict alien starship, they uncover a secret that will ignite a war: the “bubble drive”, a revolutionary FTL technology that holds the key to the future.

Suddenly, Błyskawica is the most important ship in the galaxy, and Polonia Prime is a target. The ruthless Zenith Caliphate will burn worlds to possess their discovery, while powerful allies plot to control it for themselves.

Caught between overwhelming enemy forces and treacherous politics, Maria must transform from an untested officer into the commander her people desperately need. With the fate of her ship and her home on the line, she will discover that the price of independence is paid in fire and steel.

Perfect for fans of David Weber's Honor Harrington series, The Lost Fleet, and Battlestar Galactica. Rising Storm is an action-packed military sci-fi adventure that you won't be able to put down.
