Just 59 stragglers to reclaim an entire planet. Hopeless odds? Not when you’re a Marine in the Human Legion…

Five centuries ago, Earth sold a million children into slavery. This is their descendants’ story of revenge.

2568 A.D. As Major Arun McEwan readies the newly formed Human Legion to retake his home planet of Tranquility, loyalties are wafer thin and morale low. Even his closest friends harbor poisonous secrets.

And he needs everyone beside him, because the Legion must strike boldly and win allies rapidly if it is to defeat the overwhelming numbers of an enemy led by Arun’s old nemesis.

What the Legion discovers will scar Arun’s heart, and change the meaning of the word ‘human’ forever.

JOIN THE LEGION NOW!
You can join the fight for freedom directly with Renegade Legion, the third book in the international bestselling Human Legion series, without needing to read the preceding books. For maximum reading pleasure, though, start with Book1: Marine Cadet or Book2: Indigo Squad.

A good story teller that makes you invest you mind.

Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2015

This is the third book in the series. I have no idea how many books are planed but I have begun to feel the interaction. The first book does little more than set the stage, it doesn't do a lot but it gets you started. In the second you begin to learn more of the people (humans) and other sentients that are in the books and how the humans are truly seen. The third book has a character development sense about it. I was a military scifi snob for a long time. I only read John Ringo or David Weber and Robert Heinlein (Starship Troopers a true military scifi classic MUST READ!) to name a few. As I ran out of authors to read I turned to Amazon and explored, not knowing the wealth of mil scifi that is here and Tim C. Taylor is very enjoyable author to read. I have liked all three Human Legion books and I will continue to read them as he writes them I will buy them too. Buy the books, enjoy the reading and open your mind. Very good books in my opinion.

Sacrifice, Destiny, Courage.

Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2015

Verified Purchase

Just finished this 3rd installment today.

A story of death of friends, human catastrophe, lost battles, and future hope. A story of manipulation and destiny continues.

Spoiler - We get a glimpse of where the source of Aruns Armies will come from. But that will be a story behind another book in the series.

Much more background in this 3rd book. The fun days of youth are behind us. The hard facts of sacrifice and war are upon us.

Like other comments on reviews, I would recommend reading the first two books first. The author did take the time to supply a few pages of the story so far from the first two books.

Look forward to the 4th installment. Giving this book a solid 4 star review.

I have been enjoying this series from the beginning, and book 3 continues the trend. The author is working with a vast landscape, so he has a lot of room to work with this story line that I would envision will continue for an additional number of volumes. This volume wraps up a few loose ends from the previous stories, setting up a villain that will likely appear in future volumes, and exposing both the strengths and weaknesses of the hero. I certainly will keep investing in the future editions, and I hope the author can keep advancing the story.

Great series, BUT...

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2015

Verified Purchase

I like the story, but the novels could use a bit of trimming. The overall arc of the series take awhile to get to the meat of the story for each indivdual book. Sometimes world building is great, but not at the espense of the story.... Maybe I'm being too critical or just have no patience, but in each book I've experienced moments when I wished the author would just get on with it. I'll certainly buy the next book and probably the one after that too. Only time will tell...

I greatly enjoyed the series. I wait until the complete series is available as a set then order it. I like novels and not waiting for the next chapter of a serial. The story is to good to be broken up in sections.

Another suberb book in a great series. As a combat veteran, the writer portrays both sides of war . That you don't win them all and that through it all victory us won. Brotherhood is the spiritual glue that holds a unit together. And no matter what brothers last forever.

These books would have to be classics to earn 5 stars.

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

Sadly, they are to new to be classics. If Taylor doesn't lose sight of what he is attempting to write, these may well be books to read & reread. I just finished book 3 & attempted to buy book 4, but it will not be available for several months.
Again, a story of love, betrayal, secrets, war, and most of the story is in the hands of alien augmented humans, that are in their later teens. The hero is only 17 and not a superman in the sense he is fallible. His true love is a badly damaged (in battle, read the story to understand the damage) marine and she has finally had to say goodby because this is a love that cannot happen.
This is a story that I can't encourage you enough to try. And remember, it took half of book 1 to understand enough of the story for it to become jaw dropping to me.

Hard Hits

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is what the second novel should have been. The plot flows well and I found it difficult to put down. If I have any criticism it is that too often everything turns pear-shaped for the humans and the outcome can be quite depressing. On the plus side the marines do eventually come out on top against the Hardits. A final point, I felt the novel stopped rather than ending. The path is left open for the fourth in the series but I felt it was more of a cop-out than a cliff-hanger which is what the author probably intended.

If I seem a bit harsh, well, I've been reading sf for over 50 years and I have high expectations of anything I give my time to. The next novel could make or break the series but I have high hopes of someone I consider to be a good writer.

The Legion makes Progress

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 25, 2015

Verified Purchase

This book continues the story as Arun leads his motley band of fighters through more adventures. It is the third book in the series and they gather pace with each book. There are so many characters with strange names that I found it essential to keep on referring back to the earlier books to help me to remember who they were and how they fit into the stories. It is hard to describe how one starts to believe that the story is real when we know that it is set many centuries ahead. However whilst reading the book I started to believe that I was there trying to help the cause of Freedom. The stories bring back memories of my military service and how proud I am that I wore the shoulder flash of the Desert Rats so many years ago in BAOR. Very well written and a jolly good read.

The more I read the more I enjoy. The action sequences are very impressive, the old soldier in me is more than a little jealous.
