Cornerstone — Chris Hechtl

From stories during the First A.I. War to the rebuilding period afterward, the Sol Confederation is on the rise.
Mankind and Neo-kind have begun the long tortuous rebuilding process of a shattered Earth. Some cannot wait for the planet to be healed; they wish to escape to the stars. While they leave, those left behind must find a way to run a new government and navigate the back alleyways of power.
Wendy Lagroose does her best to rebuild her father's company and stamp her brand of doing business on it. She will do anything to make certain her company survives and thrives. Doctor Glass must work to protect his people while also learning who to trust... and the old expression about keep your friends close but your enemies closer. General Roman Taylor struggles to make sure the Space Marines finish the job against any last pockets of A.I. while also remaining in service in case of future need.
They and others are going to find that their years of fighting and hard work are just a lull before the next storm on the horizon!
