Temporary Duty has a pretty good story in a not far future where the radical Islamist have succeeded in getting and using an nuclear weapon.  The result being a world that has lost a lot of people from the perhaps inevitable retaliation. This appears to have changes the nature of the US government that favor the few and those bureaucrats within.  All in all not a wonderful view of the future.Into this step a group of alien traders. Two sailors are assigned to the spaceship as grunt labor to prepare for a navy contingent to come aboard.  This the story of John Peters travels and tribulations and eventual triumph.
