Summary

The Alliance has been fighting a losing battle against the Syndicate Worlds for over a century. Now, Captain John “Black Jack” Geary, who returned to the fleet after a hundred-year suspended animation, must keep the Alliance one step ahead of its merciless foe…

After a series of deadly engagements, the Alliance fleet is severely damaged and its arsenal is running low. Forced to halt in the Baldur Star System to raid the Syndic mines for raw materials, Geary is anxious to get moving again. But what should the fleet’s next move be? The Syndics are starting to catch on to Geary’s tactics, and as the Alliance ships jump from system to system, it’s getting harder to keep one step ahead.

What’s more, Geary has started to piece fragments of intelligence together into a highly disturbing picture: The Syndics have been keeping the existence of another potential player in the war a secret--and this unknown power may have the means to annihilate the human race…

Great adventure - terrible love story

Great Battle romp, with some cool concepts and scenarios. The love drama is extremely tedious however - I had to skip whole sections to keep my sanity.

keeps getting better

this book was the most immersive to me so far in this series. going to get the next part and hope the battles keep staying as interesting. Some plot points I did foresee, but in this case it was delightfull to realise I predicted something, which is unusual for me. maybe the most intelligent readers will find this series less exciting, but this is a good fit for me and my interests.
