Publisher's summary

Commander John Winters has been fighting the war since the aliens first arrived 22 years ago. Earth has been ravaged and the alien vessels continue to come through a portal near the asteroid belt. For years, the Steel Castle class destroyers have kept them at bay, but now resources are dwindling.

Young men able to fight are in short supply. High-tech computer chips are becoming rare. The navy is down to a handful of ships and only two that are able to destroy the alien spheres at their point of entry, and it requires both of them to perform such a feat. When the Ruby Demon is destroyed while meeting the enemy at the portal, there is only one ship left: the Falling Star. Commander Winters is recalled and given orders that only a crew with a death wish would perform. To make matters worse, he must carry out his orders without his crew knowing them ahead of time. It’s a desperate ploy. If they fail, there will be no ships able to stop the alien spheres from attacking Earth at will. If they are successful, then they have a chance that they can cut off the portal-generating alien station and stop the spheres from coming.
