Valiant

Lost Fleet, Book 4

De: Jack Campbell

Narrado por: Christian Rummel

Deep within Syndicate World space, the Alliance fleet continues its dangerous journey home under the command of Captain John “Black Jack” Geary—revived after a century spent in suspended animation. Geary’s victories over the enemy have earned him both the respect—and the envy—of his fellow officers…

“Black Jack” Geary has made many risky decisions as commander, but ordering the Alliance fleet back to the Lakota Star System where it had nearly been destroyed by the Syndics has his officers questioning his sanity. It’s a desperate gamble that may buy Geary just enough time to prepare for the Syndics’ inevitable return—and give the fleet a fighting chance of survival.

But even as he struggles to stay one step ahead of the enemy, Geary must face conspirators within his own fleet—an unknown number of officers who want a change of command. And Geary knows that his fleet must stand together or the Syndic forces will tear them apart…

Fun military Sci Fi!

Follows the formula as the previous books in the series. But the formula works and is an enjoyable listen and read

The plot thickens….

Very nice blending of character development, relationship development and a thickening and twisting of the plot.

Good story, but with annoying sitcom romance

Good story, but it has some annoying sitcom romance. One moment the author is making me giggle out loud at some remark, description, or action, but then I'm reaching for the skip button due to love triangle nonsense.

monotonous story lines

the main personality story lines that keep repeating between battles are killing me. the author keeps writing the same arguments between Black Jack and co president. it's so boring, and wild to be repeating it literally after every battle. overall, the struggle to get back home and the alien intent continues. basically the same as the previous books advancing at a glacier pace

One of the best of the series

All the desperate trops come together in this book. It has it suspenceful parts and compassionate parts.
