Victory Conditions

by Elizabeth Moon

In the concluding volume of Vatta's War, Ky must pull scattered allies, worn ships, and wary governments into one last coordinated push. The final campaign will decide not only who controls the trade lanes, but what kind of order replaces the chaos after the shooting stops.

Command Decision

by Elizabeth Moon

2007

As the scale of the conspiracy behind the communications collapse becomes clear, Ky pushes her expanding fleet into riskier operations far from any official support. Command Decision forces her to balance bold strikes with the logistics and morale that keep a fighting force alive.

Engaging the Enemy

by Elizabeth Moon

With a handful of ships now under her command, Ky takes the offensive against raiders and corrupt officials who have been profiting from chaos. Every victory brings new enemies, and she must learn how to command not just battles, but the fragile alliance forming around her.

Marque and Reprisal / Moving Target

by Elizabeth Moon

2004

Kylara's small success as a captain collapses when coordinated attacks hit Vatta ships and offices across several systems. Cut off from home, she has to turn her lone vessel into the seed of a fighting force while piecing together who wants her entire family destroyed.

Trading in Danger

by Elizabeth Moon

2003

Expelled from military academy after a scandal she did not fully cause, Kylara Vatta takes command of an old family freighter on a simple cargo run. A war on the route and a risky business opportunity soon force her into choices that no one trained her for.
