The Colors of Space: Elgin Six Harry O. Weaver

This is an excellent book about the battles and travels of a young military person. The battles are very unique and different in a special way. The young military person is fighting machines, machines that he has personally helped develop. Even though he was commissioned to do so by his own government, he goes to prison for developing them. His commanding officer, Nimrod, is the person that should be going to prison, but he is a star witness against the young man in court. The young man vows to get revenge in the end, and he does. His commanding officer was a liar, and he never forgets it. While he is on a different planet, he is ordered to terminate his commanding officer by the president of his world. He finds that the planet he is on has some strange death penalties and procedures, but abides by them to the end, so far as personally cutting out his commanding officers heart. After all the bad that he has been through, he and his crew continue to do right by helping to feed starving planets. He travels the galaxies trying to help feed and develop the planets. He and his crew work hard to help make the newly discovered planets capable of feeding themselves.
