Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Osmerian Conflict is a science fiction novel written by Llewellyn Burgess and originally published on 5 March 2014. It takes place in the wider universe around three hundred years after the start of the Space Exploration (SE) Era. The Terrans are currently allied with the Silicians in an armed conflict with the titular Osmerians. While the Terrans bear the brunt of the military burden, they develop technology to stem the tide of the war. This is where the story picks up to as newly graduated Sarah Collins is allowed to command her first mission in the form of a prototype battleship code named RAINE. It details the trials and tribulations of a crew fresh out of the academy on a new prototype spaceship as they go from naive inexperienced crew to understanding the truer and deeper meaning and context of interspacial conflict as well as the politics involved with such ordeals.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Can be purchased from Amazon hereThere is now a sequel called The Fight for Home

Aliens Speaking English: Justified as Osmerians and Silicians both have had contact with Terrans and their culture, although due to the war Osmerian is less familiar to the Terran crew, and we only hear a very high commander use English before Translator Microbes are implemented. Further illustrated by Marina when Sonluth happens upon her in the corridors while she's looking at Navigation books. Since she is not expecting anyone to be in her general vicinity she is thinking aloud in her native tongue which Sonluth recognizes as not being of Terran Origin.

Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Marina Welch, being a Princess of a Proud Warrior Race, never backs down when presented with a fight. Including once she gets home accepting and beating one of her own to remind them why she's in charge.
