Relentless

Lost Fleet, Book 5

By: Jack Campbell

Narrated by: Christian Rummel

Thawed out after a century of cryogenic sleep, Captain John “Black Jack” Geary has led the Alliance fleet through Syndicate Worlds space, thwarting the enemy at every turn—even within his own ranks—during the long journey home.

Alliance prisoners of war are being held at a labor camp in the Heradao Star System, which also happens to be the location of the majority of the surviving Syndic warships. Determined not to leave any of his people behind, Black Jack Geary orders the fleet to strike hard and fast to rescue the POWs with minimal Alliance losses.

The raid is successful, but victory is short-lived. Geary discovers that the Syndics plan to ambush the fleet with their powerful reserve flotilla in an attempt to annihilate it once and for all—but he doesn’t know where the enemy is located.

And as Geary has the fleet jump from one star system to the next, hoping to avoid the inevitable confrontation, saboteurs contribute to the chaos …

Hard To Put Down

Great read. Very difficult to put down. Action scenes after action scenes. I liked the flow of the book from one scene to the next. Great narration.

just keeps getting better

Every new book in the series is better than the last. If anyone has read prior book in the "Lost Fleet" series and is on the fence about buying the next book, just do it.

Fantastic series

The books , of the books in this series are great. They all are based in faith honor, duty , and family. Everything a career in service teaches . Battle tactics aside all of these books will keep you cheering for the good guys. The only thing we never learn who the syndicate are. Who are they and why the animosity between them? Oh well enjoy the for what they are.

Thrilling Story

This one in the series kept me on the “edge of my seat”! The author brings in more treacherous variables and creates more story arcs. I had to keep listening until I finished. Highly recommend!
