A Call to Vengeance

Book III of Manticore Ascendant

By: David Weber, Timothy Zahn, Thomas Pope

Narrated by: Eric Michael Summerer

After the disastrous attack on the Manticoran home system by forces unknown, the Royal Manticoran Navy stands on the brink of collapse. A shadowy enemy with the resources to hurl warships across hundreds of light years seeks to conquer the Star Kingdom for reasons unknown, while forces from within Manticore's own government seek to discredit and weaken the Navy for reasons very much known: their own political gain.

It's up to officers like Travis Long and Lisa Donnelly to defend the Star Kingdom and the Royal Manticoran Navy from these threats, but the challenge is greater than any they have faced before. Weakened but not defeated, the mercenary forces and their mysterious employer could return at any time, and the anti-Navy faction within Parliament is growing. The situation becomes even more dire when fresh tragedy strikes the Star Kingdom.

While the House of Winton faces their enemies at home, Travis, Lisa, and the other officers of the Royal Manticoran Navy must reunite with old friends and join new allies to hunt down and eliminate the forces arrayed against them in a galaxy-spanning conspiracy.

Manticore has learned that the universe is not a safe place, but the Star Kingdom's enemies are about to learn a lesson of their own!

Thought it was the conclusion...

Apparently not. Lot of good stuff, but still a ways to go. Great listen, though.

The best of the Manticore Ascendant Series

The best of the Manticore Ascendant Series. Makes me want to know what comes next and how do they discover the worm hole junction.

A Superb End to this Trilogy.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. So much is going on. The Star Kingdom needs to find out who is sending invading mercenaries. Travis and his friends are involved in this effort. The new queen is dealing with pressures and the anti-navy contingent as well.

Lots on intrigue, fun characters, and . . . well, it's just so much fun.

Oh how the young Star Kingdom is!

I lkied the personal bits and polictical stuff more than the battles. That's because I can visualize those things.

good series

hasn't regressed like so many multiple book series of Weber's. please don't make the mistake of changing readers.
