The Lords of Haff Keith Gardner

Remember the Spartans? Have you ever wondered what an entire planet of them would be like in the future? With the Earth slowly dying due to the ozone layer steadily disappearing and water levels rising. Steps were soon being made for those who wanted to evacuate Earth. It took hundreds of years before not only the craft were available. But also to find a new solar system possible to use. In time, a fifteen planet system by its newly given name of Barathon was found by their scout ships. And when everything was finally prepared for their arrival there. Those who wished to leave did so. But not all to one as they had been on Earth. This time, various parties were not only going to live, but to also make each planet suitable to their own requirements. The largest of all of these planets was to be called Haff. Which would become purely a military one so as to defend them all. As such, after a while, both their lifestyle and harsh training regime would almost resemble that of a now very ancient warrior caste. Who were once known and feared by so many - The Spartans. Prime Commander Derus Raxx was in overall charge of this planet. A woman of great power, charisma and abilities. One who was respected so highly, and did so well at this high position which demanded so many skills. That she had became a genetic clone. This was done only so that she would always be able to keep up this same huge task for them over the many centuries which would follow. By the year 3985 - Haff's population had already grown to eight billion. Six billion of these were also fully trained warriors. Their own personal joy of life was also countered by their having no fear at all of death. And then - The Barathon system was attacked. It was now time for Raxx herself, as well as for those on Haff to show these invaders exactly what they were made of . . .
