Explanation As Books Dreadnaught (The Lost Fleet: Beyond the Frontier #1)

Geary and the Fleet are back. With the War between the Syndicate and the Alliance finally over (thanks to Geary), our hero is hoping that he can finally catch some R&R. Unfortunately, forces are at work that are pushing him back into the far reaches of space. True, the war between the two human states is over, but the Syndicate worlds are descending into chaos with many star systems proclaiming their independence and Syndicate central government trying to maintain control. And, not to be overlooked, the Enigma race is still out there, lurking, just beyond the reach of human civilization.

These books capture the menace of the Enigma race very well. They are secretive, hidden, and possessing of technology beyond that of human understanding. That's exactly what I like to see in science fiction. An ominous mystery that needs to be unwrapped. What is the Enigma race? What happened to the humans who fell under Enigma control? How much of a threat are they? To answer these questions, Geary takes the fleet beyond the frontier of human space.

And the Enigma race really is done well. The author does not simply project human rationalizations on them. They are not Klingons or Vulcans. They are an alien race with an entirely different way of looking at things. This feels really authentic to me.

Finally, with these books I feel like a broken record. I like the mystery of the Enigma race. To be frank, I started the Beyond the Frontier books simply to find out who they are. I also like the inevitable space battles. The author has nailed combat at relativistic speeds. Of course, there are also things I don't like. The card board characters. The cheesy relationship between Geary and his Captain. These are really, really starting to get to me.

Three broadsides out of five.

Always good to see another adventure by Black Jack Geary. Fun to see more information about the alien threat which was rather underdeveloped in the end of the last series, here we see a much more 'concrete' alien society which seems pretty interesting.

OK, I know I skipped the last three volumes of the Lost Fleet series. Maybe Ill go back and post some lengthier reviews but right now I will press onwards. If you havent read the first Lost Fleet series be aware that there will be some spoilers for that series in this review. That there is a second series is likely, on some level a spoiler, in and of itself. So, if youve just started to read The Lost Fleet or if you intend to read The Lost Fleet: be warned!So at the end Victorious, and likely as



Continuation to a great series, finally getting farther into the realm of sci-fi. I won't review the books individually since, like The Lost Fleet, the books are too similar to differentiate. They're more like episodes in a miniseries than separate tales.

Too much talking not enough action weigh down this latest book in this series.

This book had way too much talking for a military sci-fi action novel. I think some showing could have done the same thing to advance the plot. The ending was exciting, so it pushed my rating up. I'm actually looking forward to the next book in the series now.Reviewed for Bitten by Books. http://bittenbybooks.com.
