New York Times bestselling author Jack Campbell continues his "series of fast-paced adventure" (SFRevu) as The Lost Fleet: Beyond the Frontier continues... Admiral John "Black Jack" Geary and the crew of Dauntless have safely escorted important alien representatives to Earth. But before they can depart for home, two of Geary's key lieutenants vanish. The search for his missing men leads Geary on a far-flung chase, ultimately ending at the one spot in space from which all humans have been banned: the moon Europa. Any ship that lands there must stay or be destroyed--leaving Geary to face the most profound moral dilemma of his life. To make matters worse, strains on the Alliance are growing as the Syndics continue to meddle. Geary is ordered to take a small force to the border of Syndic space. But what he finds there is a danger much greater than anyone expected: a mysterious threat that could finally force the Alliance to its knees...
Mr.Campbell has a way with words that is both remarkably transparent and deep. Black Jack may be one of my favorite characters ever created. There is great story mixed with powerful themes in all of these books. Speaking of that the books flow so well together that they could all be combined into one giant hard cover and you wouldn't be able to tell where one ended and the next started. I have laughed, wiped a tear from eye, as well as yelled out loud a few times while reading. His story telling puts you there on Dauntless, on the bridge and the dreaded conference room. I'm thrilled I stumbled upon this series and author.
