It's been a good long while since I've read a sci-fi novel, and longer yet since I've read a GOOD sci-fi novel.

This one is really amazing. It's just the right blend of science and military sci-fi- the fleet formation and description of the battle were vivid and amazing. I am not always a fan of military sci-fi, but this reminded me of some of my favourite elements of The Expanse series by James S. A. Corey.

I'm glad this book doesn't go into unnecessary meandering. The story is simple, save the fleet from the enemies along with the macguffin - in this case a Key. It doesn't take long for the action to kick in and the journey to begin.

And what a journey this is going to be.
