Resumen del Editor
On her maiden voyage, HMS Warspite discovered Vesy, a world populated by primitive aliens, aliens whose culture had already been twisted and warped by human refugees from the First Interstellar War. Now Captain John Naiser and his crew spearhead a diplomat mission to the alien homeworld, hoping to ease them into the galactic mainstream. But with hundreds of others hoping to influence and shape the developing alien culture and all hell threatening to break loose as human ideals meet alien realities, events on Vesy might just mark the start of a new interstellar conflict....
And a civil war that will tear the human sphere apart.

Historia
Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes to keep out of the public eye. But when a deadly alien threat appears, the modern starships built by humanity are no match for the powerful alien weapons.

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.

The Unincorporated Man is a provocative social/political/economic novel that takes place in the future, after civilization has fallen into complete economic collapse. This reborn civilization is one in which every individual is incorporated at birth and spends many years trying to attain control over his or her own life by getting a majority of his or her own shares. Life extension has made life very long indeed.

When the Colony on Hayden's world went black, a team was sent to investigate. It was supposed to be a training mission: skip in, find out the Casimir Transmitter had gone dead, report back and wait for resupply from the Fleet. By the time the only surviving member of the team made landfall, it was spectacularly clear that this wasn't a training mission.

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.

Earth has been a scarred ruin for three decades, its scattered people struggling to survive amid the poisoned and radioactive wreckage of the final war between its despotic superpowers. While the people of Earth struggle to survive, out on the frontier, on a thousand worlds, mankind thrives and grows, building new civilizations and looking boldly to the future. But man has never been able to live in peace, and even Earth's sad fate has failed to slow the call to war.

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.

They hunt us. They bomb our worlds for target practice. A star cluster in the constellation of Orion rotates once every 1,000 years. Those who rule there have an ancient tradition: When each cycle ends, they train their fleets by spilling the blood of lesser beings. The enemy fleets are coming again. In response, the Rebel Worlds gather their starships to face the terrifying threat, and this time humanity is asked to stand with them. The last time they considered Earth, Vikings in longboats were raiding English coastlines. Today, we're less primitive. Today, we're a target.

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.

A little long for a predictable outcome
I felt like I knew where this was going from the beginning. Not horrible, just not as good as previous books in series.

The evolution of this story is stupid
i have enjoyed earlier books in this series but after a major interstellar war i find it hard to imagine a bunch of nastiness and factions squabbling over control of a new planet with a new alien presence...
maybe our species will remain as stupid and idiotic as we are today but i hope not and really are not interested in continuing this adventure...there is enough idiocy today... and the story line had lost its magic

Can't put myself through another book of series...
I've read the entire series, but the author seems to have lost his interest and his focus... dives into the minutiae where it doesn't need to and looses focus on the main plot lines when he does. Every once in awhile there is something of interest, but it's few and far between. I simply can't put myself through another of these books. Lost interest....

Not my favorite...but still a
The story is a capable narrative but flat extrapolation from colonial empire eras. I love author but he always seems so better with a chip on his shoulder about comparison and contrast either American and British military history of the lots America British shoelace relations and military if you know what talking about the school if you don't don't worry about especially it's a American Marines subtle but it's there so for a very basic review for a very in fan it's better than not listening to one or not reading just not that great of a ventures you're not that great of characters though I'm sure other people would love themhit or miss with this one it take it or leave it you got to be a kook aid drinking for you to love it

Geopolitics on a 3rd world planet
Christopher G Nuttall's A Savage War of Peace is the 5th installment in the Ark Royal series. This volume follows directly on after #4 which introduced a new alien species that had been partially corrupted by a group of renegade Russians. A primitive intelligent species of humanoid-like aliens combined with a system rich seven tramlines and asteroids makes this new world a magnet for governments, religious groups, and charities. With limited military capabilities, led by Warspite, the British ambassador and military commander juggle multiple potential calamities, while other governments have ulterior and sinister motives.
The sci-fi elements are limited to past space related gadgetry as well as unique biology and psycho-social customs of the alien species. The focus of the tale is geopolitical intrigue that mirrors previous Cold War era machinations as great powers vie for influence in backwater boudoirs. Questions of morality that contrast and belie the myth of the noble savage and the "advanced race's" burden abound. The intrigue is palpable as various factions and individuals stumble their way forward. In the end, there is no right or wrong, but merely consequences for others to deal with later.
The narration is well done, except for the aliens who all sound too similar. Pacing and mood are well rendered, especially given the multiple viewpoints the story offers. While closure for the tale is less than satisfying, the setup for #6 is less a cliff hanger, and more the next round in a geopolitical winner take all grudge match

I am a big fan of Christopher, but this one dragged a lot
I love most oh his work. The combination of real life issues from logistics to political pressure and the backstabbing nature of military politics has always been good. His other series's are great. The rest of this series is great, but this book dragged on a lot. I kept losing interest though I eventually finished it.
My biggest complaint was editing. Character perspectives moved from one to the other with less pause than at the end of a standard sentence. Give it a second or two! Literally it didn't seem like the sentence ended and suddenly I was somewhere else hearing from somebody else.

Great Story!
Finally breaking from an Anglo-centric story, this was a refreshing story of what happens when a super power loses its influence while hungry 2nd grade powers move in for the kill. I hated the cliffhanger ending but look forward to the next book. Performance was very good as usual.
