CAPTAIN ALGERNON FISK against The PIRATES OF THE ASTEROID BELT

Fisk Series, Book 1

Excerpt From the book:

“FIRE!” Algernon said.

The closeness of the DESTINY, the double loads and the natural tendency of plasma to make light caused the plasma bolts illumination to overload the viewscreen images. The fire coming out of the broadside, with the compressed double loads of the plasma cannons was the same as facing the regular broadside of a light cruiser. The heat of the plasma rounds punctured through the layer of shielding and continued to burn its way through the hull, creating man-sized holes along the exterior of the ship. But as ordered, the gun crews had left the airlock intact.

The DESTINY’s gun crews had been primed to fire, expecting to be able to put a few rounds into an enemy. But due to the failure of the ship’s command and control structure caused by CHRE’s worm, the gun crews of the DESTINY were unable to respond effectively. Even still some of the more alert and capable of the crews were able to fire off their loads before the onslaught by the HORACE.
