A warship with no history… A captain with something to prove… A father with a plan for revenge… A pilot with nothing to care for…
After years of being passed over for a command, Captain Thuc Vo finally had a ship of his own. Three weeks later, the Swarm returned and took it all away. Now with a new ship, he must turn the most inexperienced crew in IDF into a cohesive team before the Swarm, and a surprising new enemy, destroy all he’s worked for.
Blaming Captain Tim Granger for the death of his son, Commander Nikolas Keats looks for an avenue for revenge. The retribution will cost him his career, his wife, and his oldest friends. Is he willing to pay the high cost?
The Swarm stripped Lieutenant Nora Quinn of everything she ever cared about. She now relies on nothing but her X-25 and her skill. Forced to lead an inexperienced squad, Quinn searches for a reason to care.
This book was a real trip, action upon action with barely a moment to take a breath between. As if the Swarm wasn't enough to deal with there is more cloak and dagger from fellow humans! It wasn't ever confusing though, which was fantastic. Some of the scientific dialogue went over my head but it in no way detracted from my overwhelming enjoyment of the book. I loved the characters as they all had a warmth to them (sometimes hidden well) and the author allowed us to get to know them, often difficult with such a complex storyline. The book would benefit from a spelling and grammar check again but, apart from that, it was a brilliant story and I'd highly recommend it to sci-fi fans.
This is the latest of the spin offs from Legacy Fleet series that I have read. I found this book a real slow burner it took a while building up the characters but this was built into a storyline that meant you could not quite put the book down,the pace of the story picked up the further the book goes on and the ending didn't disappoint can highly recommend this book to any military sci if readers and stands in its own right as well as slotting into Nick Webb's Legacy Fleet series.
I gave it 5 stars because I could not put it down. The story was well written and had plenty of twists that you didn't see coming, like the best friend taking your new state of the art ship part and some others that I don't want to give away. The book is well worth the time to read it and as always Mr Hubble will not let his readers down. Loved it.
Very easy read the flow in the book was very good. Not a lot of wasted words. Addressing that the book could have been longer for 3.99. That this rate I would spend an average of25.00 per month. WOW
