BLURB:
In the final days of the empire, Cyborg Corps Colonel Leonidas Adler plans to die in a manner befitting of an imperial officer: he will fight until his last breath, giving his life to defend Emperor Markus. As it was meant to be.But when the emperor himself summons him for a final special mission, how can he refuse?
This short prequel story gives quite a lot of information about Leonidas while still keeping him rather mysterious to the reader. When I read the first book back in August, I didn't like Leonidas quite so much, but after reading this short story, I feel like I understand him quite a bit better and I think I made a good decision by reading #0.5 before continuing on with book #2.
Also, I think it made some things quite a bit clearer to me when I was reading Honor's Flight than I would've understood if I hadn't read Last Command before. Some hints seemed quite obvious to me now, but I don't think I could've understood those hints so well if I hadn't read this prequel shortly before.
