Dauntless (Book 1, The Lost Fleet series) by Jack Campbell, 2006

Dauntless by Jack CampbellI’ve had several people recommend the Lost Fleet series to me.  I’m a space opera fan, and space battles/military SF is an “easy read” for me. The books have proven to read pretty quickly.

Campbell has a great hook in this series with his hero, who has to reinstill tactics and an honorable code of conduct within ‘the good guys’.  I’ve actually read the second in this series as well. The first arc goes six books and there are additional series for another fourteen books so I can keep going as long as I can find them!

One thought on “Dauntless (Book 1, The Lost Fleet series) by Jack Campbell, 2006”

  1. At the end of last week I finished the sixth book in the first series (Invincible) and started with the first two in the second series. Turns out that I am a sucker for the hero with ethics and morals. It’s easy enough to gloss over the space battle physics setups in the same way that I ignore them for David Weber’s ‘Honorverse’.
