In the 32nd century, the Republic of the Sphere is beset on all sides, its enemies seeking the most important advantage in the Inner Sphere: interstellar communication. As the Capellan Confederation’s mighty military penetrates the crumbling Republic, they are laser-focused on the one goal that will let them destroy the Republic once and for all: the planet of Northwind, homeworld of the famed Northwind Highlanders mercenaries.
Northwind boasts the only working hyperpulse generator along the line of the Capellan Confederation’s advance into the weakened Republic.Sang-shao Lindsey Baxter and the Fourth McCarron’s Armored Cavalry have been tasked with taking Northwind for the Confederation at all costs, and the besieged Republic is unable to lend support to the defending XII Hastati Sentinels. Northwind will be easy pickings, allowing the Capellans to use Northwind as a launch point for the next phase of their campaign.
The arrival of a Draconis Combine fleet, recent allies of the Confederation, further shifts the balance. Will the Capellan force finally bring Northwind back under the rule of the Celestial Throne, or will Countess Tara Campbell, Captain Declan Casey, and Knight of the Republic Maeve Stirling find a way to lead the embattled Highlanders to victory?
This omnibus collects both novels in the Highlander Covenant duology—Grey Watch Protocol and Paid in Blood—and the short story “Perceptions of Victory.”
