The Final Battle by William C. Dietz

Human and machine. Elite and expendable. They are the Legion of the Damned™. In the distant future, condemned criminals and the terminally ill face two choices: they can die, or they can join the Legion of the Damned, an elite fighting force that consists of human legionnaires and cyborgs.

Decades ago, the corrupt Imperial government was overthrown, and the Hudathans were defeated. But war has broken out again. Now, after being imprisoned on the very planet they laid waste to, the Hudathans on the rise—and this time, they have cyborgs of their own. Their sights are set on the Confederacy—and the Legion of the Damned will be there to greet them. It’s time for… The Final Battle.
