Reviews with the most likes.
Mostly the same as the first book, but a little less interesting, now that the novelty factor has died down. A fair continuation, without much to add to the original formula.
I find my self enjoying the episodic nature of The Lost Fleet's journey back into Alliance fleet.
Jack Geary continues to show us why he's the man for the job. But I found the romance between him and Rione a bit forced and out of nowhere. It also doesn't seem very believable because those two almost always end up discussion the difference between Jack Geary the man and Black Jack the myth and the legend. Somehow all their discussions end up at that topic. It's frustrating.
The space battles and the realistic way it is portrayed is very engaging, and it is my favourite element of these books.
The more books I read in this series, the more it reminds me of a space based D&D campaign.
Continuing the adventures of the cast from Dauntless, so if you liked the first book, you'll like this one. The main character grows in nuance, some antagonistic characters get their comeuppance, yet the enemy remains relatively monolithic and faceless.
