**Sequel to Ambush-IndieReader Best of SF&F** It's 2016. Air Force Fighter Pilots Jake Giard and Sandra Fitzpatrick saved the world ... twice! But That Was Yesterday. Following the apocalyptic events of Ambush, Jake must board and somehow control the advanced alien fleet of huge ghost ships before they start falling into the Atlantic. Yesterday, Captain Sandra Fitzpatrick found out she's pregnant. Then she helped save the world. Tomorrow, if she can keep her condition a secret (even from Jake, the father to be), Sandy may lead space fighters into combat. If Jake and Sandy prevail, can Earth's ravaged militaries master the fleet's technologies? Can today's naval forces adapt now outdated tactics to the limitless battlefield of space? On the newly settled Argonian colony world of Chuvarti, scientist Remulkin Thramorus watched the enemy vaporize his entire family along with every man, woman, and child. As the world's sole survivor, Remulkin joins the ravaged Galactic Defense Forces en route to Galactic Sector 64. Will Remulkin find peace, or will his thirst for vengeance destroy him? After the battle for Chuvarti, the GDF's Supreme Commander needs to find out what happened to the fleet he sent to Earth space. However, with an unknown spy threatening to tip the balance and the remainder of the enemy fleet on the move, it's a race against time. The Galactic Defense Forces must get to the Sol System before the enemy's main force. But if they do, what happens when the GDF discovers Earth's militaries operating their ships? As the Milky Way's two most powerful armadas loose their engines of destruction over present day Earth, the remnants of humankind must rise from the ashes like a Phoenix. With the fate of the galaxy in their hands, can Jake and his ragtag team make a stand? What the Critics Are Saying About Sector 64 LiquidFrost - GoodReads and Amazon Reviewer "This series moves into the Space Opera world, officially. Retribution moves faster than Ambush ... Hits the ground with destruction; ends with destruction, with destruction in-between. So yes, it is a heartwarming tale full of rainbows and kittens." AudiobookReviewer.com "SECTOR 64: Ambush was a highly imaginative action-packed apocalyptic assault on your mind." IndieReader.com "SECTOR 64: AMBUSH is an engaging book from the very first page to the final words of the Epilogue." Audiobook-Heaven.com "Cole has a good thing going here ... His descriptions of aerial battle and military procedure are accurately detailed and his knowledge of the aircraft themselves fascinated me ... He created a couple of races of aliens, gave them their own histories and cultures and just made them outright interesting. His characters are realistic and believable as well. Sector 64: Ambush is a great read."
