Resumen del Editor
Six months have passed since The Road to the Stars.
An uneasy peace has settled between the Solarian Union and the Terran Federation. Negotiations continue, but seem to be going nowhere.
But that doesn't mean Cass and Ken haven't been busy.
Their second starship is about to commission. A new habitat is nearly complete. A new class of fighters is entering service.
And they still have stars to explore.
But within the Union, new plots are arising. New challenges are being prepared. Soon, they will be ready to strike.
Will Cass and Ken be able to handle the latest attack? Or will the dream of a Terran Federation die?

Historia
Growing up, Travis Uriah Long yearned for order and discipline in his life...he two things his neglectful mother couldn’t or wouldn’t provide. So when Travis enlisted in the Royal Manticoran Navy, he thought he’d finally found the structure he’d always wanted so desperately. But life in the RMN isn’t exactly what he expected. Boot camp is rough and frustrating; his first ship assignment lax and disorderly; and with the Star Kingdom of Manticore still recovering from a devastating plague, the Navy is possibly on the edge of budgetary extinction.

Historia
In the 25th century, humans have conquered space. The advent of faster-than-light travel has opened up hundreds of habitable planets for colonization, and humans have exploited the virtually limitless space and resources for hundreds of years with impunity. So complacent have they become with the overabundance that armed conflict is a thing of the past, and their machines of war are obsolete and decrepit. What would happen if they were suddenly threatened by a terrifying new enemy?

Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

People love easily. Look at most of your relatives or coworkers. How lovable are they? Really? Yet most have mates and children. The vast majority are still invited to family gatherings and their relatives will speak to them. Many have pets to which they are devoted. Some even call them their fur-babies. Is your dog or cat or parakeet property or family? Not in law but in your heart? Can a pet really love you back? Or is it a different affection? Are you not kind to those who feed and shelter you? But what if your dog could talk back? Would your cat speak to you kindly?

The first book of best-selling sci-fi author Jack Campbell’s new series Beyond the Frontier returns to find Captain John “Black Jack" Geary, the hero of the Lost Fleet series, awoken from cryogenic sleep to take command of the fleet. Geary’s legendary exploits have earned him the adoration of the people—and the enmity of politicians convinced that a living hero can be a very inconvenient thing.

Earth is conquered. Sol is lost. One ship is tasked to free them. One Captain to save them all. When an alien armada destroys the United Earth Space Force and takes control of the human homeworld, newly reinstated Captain Annette Bond must take her experimental hyperspace cruiser Tornado into exile as Terra's only interstellar privateer. She has inferior technology, crude maps, and no concept of her enemy, but the seedy underbelly of galactic society welcomes her so long as she has prizes to sell and money to spend.

Creativity and Pacing
Adam Gaffen creates superb characters, strong plot, makes you laugh at times, and brings great creativity even though he builds upon a dream many of us had, or still have!
I don’t want to give away anything, but this is a must read, even if you skipped ahead. It stand alone, but builds nicely on the overall storyline.
Jane Wheatherstone is a gifted narrator that brings the story to life!

LGBTQ+ Star Trek Fanfic - yay!
Note: While this is book 3 in the series, it works mostly OK as a stand alone.
This is just straight up Star Trek fanfiction at this point. While it lacks originality, it is still fun. It’s like an alternate universe Star Trek where two ladies have created the Federation and the first starship, Enterprise. I love that the LGBTQ+ community is so well represented in this series.
This space opera has epic space stuff going on (setting up a new mining colony!), espionage (Artemis conglomerate is still being a pill), and some courtroom drama (are genetically enhanced humans allowed full legal rights?). This series has been consistently upbeat where universal rights, fairness, honesty, and for-the-greater-good mentality always win out. It makes this series uplifting even as it makes it predictable. Of course people will be loyal if you offer them free childcare, free healthcare, decent salaries, and career mobility. Perhaps those on the other side of the fence would be willing to jump ship and join the Federation as well. And how can the courts possibly deny basic legal rights to enhanced humans when one of those humans (Kendra) is a major force in creating the Federation, our best chance yet of seeding the galaxy with humans? So, yeah, uplifting but I never really worried about our main heroes (which means there’s not much tension or drama).
There’s plenty of other pop culture references in this book like from Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Hitchhiker’s Guide, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, and more. Because of all the pop culture and the heavy Star Trek influence, there were moments where I could predict word-for-word where things were going. While it was pretty predictable, this scifi nerd still really enjoyed the ride. 4/5 stars.
The Narration: Jane Weatherstone is still a good pick for Cass and Ken. I’ve really grown to love her voice for Cass in particular. The pacing is good tho she often mispronounced the words vague and vaguely. Her masculine voices are better but could still benefit from a touch more masculinity. I liked her gentle Texan accent for one character and still loving her Australian accent for Stone (best babysitter ever!). There were no tech issues with this recording. 4/5 stars.
I received a free copy of this book. My opinions are 100% my own.
