Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “breathtaking sequel” to the Prometheus Award winner: Exiled from Earth, a revolutionary hero prepares for interplanetary civil war (Booklist). The Kollin brothers introduced their future world, and their character Justin Cord, in their award-winning novel The Unincorporated Man. Justin created a revolution in that book, and is now exiled from Earth to the outer planets, where he is a heroic figure . . . The corporate society that is headquartered on Earth and rules Venus, Mars, and the Orbital colonies wants to destroy Justin and reclaim hegemony over the rebellious outer planets. The first interplanetary civil war begins as the military fleet of Earth attacks. Filled with battles, betrayals, and triumphs, The Unincorporated War is a full-scale space opera that catapults the focus of the earlier novel up and out into the solar system. Justin remains a fighter, both logical and passionate, for the principles that motivate him. He also remains the most dangerous man alive. “Masterful command of multiple plot threads, characters, and the motifs of grand-scale space opera.” —Booklist “Appealing characters, ruthless villains, and speed-of-light pacing make this a good choice for fans of battle-oriented sf and heroic space adventure in the tradition of Robert Heinlein and David Weber.” —Library Journal
