W. C. Bauers works in sales and publishing during the day and writes military science fiction and space opera at night. His interests include Taekwondo, military history, playing Space Munchkin (Spy Munchkin is a close second), and drinking caf. He lives in the Rocky Mountains with his wife, three boys, and the best rescue in the world, Bailey. 
Unbreakable is the debut novel from W.C. Bauers and the first book in THE CHRONICLES OF PROMISE PAEN, billed as a blend of hard military sci-fi (in the vein of Starship Troopers) and the Wild West-like sensibilities of the television series Firefly. While the novel does contain those elements, focusing on them alone does a disservice to Bauer’s incorporation of real and imagined military history and his skillful portrayal of the marines who serve the interests of the Republic of Aligned Worlds.
