Sarna News
Is the Sun Setting on the Sword? was book written by SLDF Captain Thurston Payne in 2765 and published by Oxford University Press.[1]
Overview[edit]
The book was a sensationalist text that claimed that the Federated Suns was a nation tottering on the edge of internal collapse. His book was based on his observations of the Federated Suns and Capellan Confederation and their respective militaries during the border war between the two states that began in 2760 and ended in 2762, as well as further research conducted in 2763 and 2764. Payne had served in the Star League Defense Force Office of Liaison and Command as a Captain during the border conflict.
The book was considered required reading for any senior SLDF commanders serving or expecting to serve in the Federated Suns Military Region.[1]
