In John Falkenberg, science fiction giant Jerry Pournelle created an ethical mercenary colonel whose private army fights for more than money or glory. This edition, named The Prince, recently collected the Falkenberg saga (originally 4 books) in a single volume. Set in the CoDominium universe Pournelle shares with frequent collaborator Larry Niven, the Falkenberg stories follow the adventures of these mercenaries as they fight to restore order to the chaos that follows the collapse of an interstellar republic. Pournelle does not neglect the military action, but neither does he wallow in testosterone and guts, creating a tale that will appeal to fans of science fiction, military fiction, or just a good story.
