Starstrike : Task Force Mars

To fight a war, the world needs a new kind of warrior. In 2050, after sending disturbing distress calls, one of Earth's research outputs on Mars is cloaked in ominous silence. The U.S. military wants answers, and only its bravest commandos can get them. Navy SEALs are the best on Earth; now a select few are being sent to the stars with a new moniker: SEALS (Sea, Air, Land, and Space). The direness of the Martian situation becomes apparent when Lieutenant Thomas Stonewall Jackson and his men are kidnapped by hostile aliens. Now they may have to steal an alien aircraft, fight through several battalions, and even take out a highly advanced planetary defense system or two. But what's impossible for most is just another op for this twelve-man team, the best warriors in the galaxy. With an Earth research outpost on Mars ominously silent after sending out a disturbing distress call, the U.S. military sends an elite team of Navy SEALs, led by Lieutenant Thomas Stonewall Jackson, to investigate, but the team finds itself kidnapped by hostile aliens and forced to steal an alien aircraft, battle impossible odds, and take out a high-tech planetary defense system to escape. An elite squadron of space commandos battles against the deadliest dangers the galaxy has to offer, in this second novel of an action-packed, military science fiction series
