REBELLION · Book 3
Tides of War
After being saved from annihilation by the Old Gator’s daring plan, Gabriel and the crew of the Magellan find themselves in the most unlikely of places: a captured enemy starship. While learning to control the alien vessel introduces a new set of challenges, the secrets they discover within may prove to be the edge they so desperately need.
With the rebellion on Earth rushing headlong toward a final, last-ditch battle and the remainder of the alien armada standing between them and home, it will take all of their strength, courage, and ingenuity to destroy the enemy once and for all.
Before the enemy destroys them.

Gabriel St Germain - I am on the last book but I am unsure how old he is supposed to be, because his mother died 50 years before and he is portrayed as being young like 20, to early 30's. Did I miss something?
BTW I really like the series.

Hi Bob,
I think you had also made a similar comment on Weapons of War. Apologies if that wasn't you, but here's my response. Thanks for reading!
Hi Bob,
Thanks for asking. Yes, you did miss something :)
Gabriel was born from a surrogate using one of his mother's frozen eggs, years after the ship left Earth. That's why the Old Gator is so old, and Gabriel is so young.
Here's one of the references to it from the book:
Children had been and still were a priority, though there was less desperation now than there was thirty years ago. Not all of the eggs that had been carried off Earth with the fleeing colony ship had ever been fertilized and implanted into a surrogate. Gabriel had been lucky because of who his father was, and even then he had been left to wait his turn. Theodore St. Martin hadn't wanted a son until he was older so that he could stretch his family's involvement in the resistance for as long as it took.
I hope that helps clear things up. Thanks for reading!
Cheers,
Michael.
