Historia
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

first book in a series that keeps getting better
Revisado: 04-02-25
I found the first half of this book incredibly enjoyable and worth my time. things start to ramp up and the plot complicates in a way that rocketed the book up to my favorite. it's been too many years since I read this book and haven't reviewed. I really can't Express how good of a book this is and how it's my least favorite and it's entire series over 15 plus books. it's the story and characters that keep on giving definitely worth the read. if it doesn't while you within the first couple pages then trust the awesome and keep reading it just keeps getting better.

dumb fun

it's like listening to my grunt veterinarian and active military friends telling me a story again. Except it's hours of fun rather than short ones.

The Merry Band of Pirates stopped the enemy from stealing a Sentinel, and destroyed its Elder starship, so why weren’t the Pirates planning a victory party? The enemy was not what they thought it was. It was much, much worse.

biggest and best clif hangar
Revisado: 09-20-24
Was sad when the series was over. Was skeptical when the announcement for a continuation was made. somehow the hype continues with each book on this new adventure with the mery band of pirates. This book ends leaving me with by far the biggest anticipation for the next book I've ever felt for any series. Letsss gooooo!

Historia
The Aftermath of a stunning victory—especially an unexpected, complete, and final victory—should be high-fives all around, listening to politicians give boring congratulatory speeches, and a well-deserved rest for the Merry Band of Pirates. Yes, the galaxy is still a freakin' mess, but that is nothing new, and for a change, that can be someone else's problem. Until, you know, something really bad happens, and only the Pirates can deal with the problem... Or not.

He ain't done yet!
Revisado: 12-28-23
Generally satisfying ending in the last book didn't think Craig would continue the series. I was very happily wrong and very happily surprised that yet another great book. I wouldn't say it's the best one in the series but it's definitely the top three and there's a lot of books in this series. highly recommend picking up all the other ones just so you can enjoy this and the other best books in the series. Honestly they're all great and every book in the series feels like it continuously gets better and better. There are days worth of hours to listen and enjoy the entire series. The novella and side books covering the adventures of the Mavericks is also a great read.

Historia
Children are not supposed to rescue their parents, life is supposed to be the other way around. And rescues aren't supposed to be needed on the trip out to the new colony planet Valhalla. Slow, yes. Boring, yes. Dangerous? No, the trip is not supposed to be dangerous, never has been. When thieves attack the transport ship to steal an ancient alien artifact, and young Kaylee and her brother, Manny, are cut off from their parents, they have to stop the thieves from getting what they want.

loved this book. it was similar breath of fresh air for a sci-fi novel based in hard science fiction setting. if you are a fan of other sci-fi books by this author you should keep an eye on Aces. it fills the hole after finishing expeditionary force series

After saving the world many times, the Merry Band of Pirates have accepted the inevitable: Earth is doomed. All they can do is try to bring a few thousand people to safety, before vicious aliens arrive to destroy humanity's home world. No. There is one other thing they can do: hit the enemy so hard that the aliens will regret they ever heard of humans.

You'll want to buy the next book in the series before finishing this book. You will not want to pause between "Valkyrie" and "Critical Mass".

Revisado: 12-16-22
Every new book in the series is better than the last. If anyone has read prior book in the "Lost Fleet" series and is on the fence about buying the next book, just do it.

I've been aware about the Maverick series as I have slowly climbed up the ladder books in this series. I was very skeptical but with the tie in books i skipped, I very much regretted my skepticism. I am very much excited to see the Mavericks and the Ex-Force
