Book Review: The Lost Fleet – Beyond the Frontier – Guardian, Jack Campbell

This book was a lucky, random find in a charity book shop. I hadn’t read anything by this author before, but the book was thoroughly enjoyable. It’s primarily a Science Fiction book – the hero, Admiral Jack Geary, guides his fleet of starships across the galaxy back to the home system, Varandal, encountering numerous enemies (some human, some alien) on the way. But he also has to overcome political challenges and man-management issues within the fleet and in the government back home.

This one is a spin-off from a series of books, so I’ve ordered the first (“Dauntless”) to fill in the background.
