BattleTech: Strength of the Pack: (A BattleTech Serial Novel)

Deffin, Mikila, Tripp, and Valt are cadets on the verge of accomplishing their greatest desire—becoming MechWarriors in the touman of Clan Wolf. Nearly inseparable throughout their sibko training, little do they know that their paths are about to diverge beyond anything they could imagine.

Three of them pass their Trial of Position with little difficulty. But the fourth makes a split-second decision on the battlefield that could cost them everything…including their three friends…and sends them on a journey that will test everything they think they know about being a warrior.

Split between a bottom-of-the-barrel BattleMech Cluster and a lowly infantry outfit, each former cadet must find their own individual paths toward honor and what it means to serve Clan Wolf. But vicious, daring bandit raids threaten everything these new warriors have worked toward, and despite the Wolves’ cunning and firepower, the Dark Caste may be too powerful to bring down without help…
