The Legend and the Lioness — Robert D. Armstrong

Ace pilot Victoria Belic returns with the pulse-pounding sequel to the best-selling sci-fi novel The Legion and the Lioness!   

As Titan command positions themselves to stop the android space fleet hurling toward their moon, Victoria finds her wings clipped as she's thrust into a ground war against a cybernetic horde known as the Mave.  

With humanity's fate in jeopardy, an alliance is formed between humans from both Titan and Earth to fight the machines. But there is a wild card: the Engineer, a legendary swordsman of the Legion knights that wields a blade of fire. Victoria is forced to tread carefully as not only do her enemies pose a threat but potentially her allies as well.
