An enjoyable sequel with many influences August 20, 2007
I just finished devouring the second book this weekend, and did enjoy it quite a bit. One bit of criticism I might throw out, is that I tended to over analyze some of the influences of the book.
Whether intentional or not, you might catch a glimpse of:
Honor Harrington (On Basilisk Station (Honor Harrington Book 1)) from David Weber
Adama and Roselyn (Battlestar Galactica - Season One) from Battlestar Galactica
Nicholas Seafort (Challenger's Hope (Seafort Saga)) from David Feintuch (which I've heard is based on Horatio Hornblower (Horatio Hornblower Collector's Edition), but I cannot compare them firsthand.)
Overall, a very enjoyable read, I'm recommending it to my friends.
Prediction-without-giving-away-too-much: I strongly suspect one of the supporting characters will turn out to be an Artificial Intelligence. :) Let's see if book three gives that up or not.
A good space adventure to relax with July 23, 2007

I enjoyed both of the Lost Fleet adventures very much and am looking forward to the third. I agree that the writing and the characters are not great, but I stayed up until 3a.m. to finish the book; I was that hooked into the story. Reminds me of watching a *good* Bruce Willis movie -- I did not want to think profoundly, I just wanted to be entertained. These two books accomplished that and the third one is on my wish list waiting for the publication date. Thanks, Mr. Campbell.

This is not the worst book that I have ever read but man it is close. Flat characters and the plot went nowhere. You can tell the writer is setting up a series but how he expects it to sell is a mystery. Do not waste your money.

Between this book and the first in the series it took only four days to read....I couldn't put them down! Excellent character interaction.
Buy the series! July 4, 2007

While we are use to our hero's being perfect and all knowing, this space opera shows us the human being behind the man who is put on the hero's pedestal. While the first volume 'Dauntless" rates 5 stars, the second Fearless goes down to 4 (probably only because I wanted more than 293 pages, and I hate waiting for the next volume). Definitely a great read with an original storyline.
