The Legend of ZERO: Forgotten

It's been 819 years since Congress abandoned humanity to a Stone Age fate on an Earth infested with man-eating monsters, and now the galactic government, in all its benevolence, has come back to force humanity back into citizen status in its great collective... ...Except this time, thanks to Prime Commander Dobbs, humanity has a surprise for our alien conquerors. ZERO: Forgotten is a post-apocalyptic science fiction adventure where a group of naive genetic experiments take on an alien government in an all-or-nothing fight for the fate of humanity, a unique twist on conventional space opera. (If you're already a fan: This stand-alone ZERO novel completes the prophecy begun by Joe Dobbs in Forging Zero, completely independent of the previous books, but also the final chapter in the arc. Yes, there will be one more book between this and Book 3. This is a stand-alone that takes place many centuries after Joe dies. Only the longest-lived characters are the same, and reading this book will in no way undermine the fun, exciting ride of the second half of Joe's adventures on Earth. [i.e. contains no spoilers])
