After meandering, imo, in book 3, Campbell[whose real name is John Hemry] kicks back into gear and gives us more of what we want.

Exciting space battles, traitors, Honor to enemies, Love and aliens! All this in spades. This book was much more fast paced and reminded me of book 1. Good stuff.

OK Book #4 Valiant from "The Lost Fleet" This is probably the best book of the series so far... And i failed to mention it in the other reviews, there is enough information given by the author so these books could stand alone but it makes is more enjoyable to read it as a series. Where any of the other books lack this book makes up for. Starting out with a Serious big battle, one that could destroy his fleet that is trapped behind enemy lines. The Alliance Fleet under the command of John "Black Jack" Geary continue the story and the author continues to expand the storyline drawing in the information that there could possible be a non-human alien race at work here keeping the two human sides fighting a neverending war. A war it seems that after 100 years of fighting that neither side is any closer to winning. But is the unknown alien picking sides or is it just trying to even the scales? Now if space battles, unknown aliens and an enemy that doesn't trust anything thats said to them after years of propaganda and fear, isn't enough then add a struggle with unknow conspirators in his own fleet viaing for command of the very fleet he has brought this far through enemy territory. This author has combined enough action into this book to keep the reader turning the pages. Enjoy !

Not the book to start with if you haven't read others. Start with the first one.

This one had good twists, particularly with the romantic sub-plot. I was surprised. Good and realistic emotional development for the characters and even the enemies. More clues in the bigger plot. More backstory on many characters. Otherwise it was very much the same as all the other books in the series, lots of repetition if you're reading the series books close together (sometimes too much repetition) and bit of oddly formal dialogue that annoyed me, though others might think it fit in. More battles that are written in the same language as all the others in the other books.

If you're invested in the series this one is another episode with clues and developments you can't miss. And the romantic twist alone makes this one good.
