Dauntless

Lost Fleet, Book 1

De: Jack Campbell

Narrado por: Jack Campbell, Christian Rummel

The Alliance has been fighting the Syndics for a century—and losing badly. Now its fleet is crippled and stranded in enemy territory. Their only hope is a man who’s emerged from a century-long hibernation to find he has been heroically idealized beyond belief…

Captain John “Black Jack” Geary’s legendary exploits are known to every schoolchild. Revered for his heroic “last stand” in the early days of the war, he was presumed dead. But a century later, Geary miraculously returns from survival hibernation and reluctantly takes command of the Alliance fleet as it faces annihilation by the Syndics.

Appalled by the hero-worship around him, Geary is nevertheless a man who will do his duty. And he knows that bringing the stolen Syndic hypernet key safely home is the Alliance’s one chance to win the war. But to do that, Geary will have to live up to the impossibly heroic “Black Jack” legend…

Good

Exciting story with good battle scenes. Good narration. The story kept ia good pace with good characters

Good but generic

decent story but nothing unusual. Pretty generic. I felt like I've read it all before.

Loved it

Fast paced, engaging, well executed first novel in this series. It grabbed me from the very beginning.

Enjoyed the series

Great read. Glad the later series do not have unnecessary scenes that may not be proper for young teens. The narrator brought the book to life. Awesome performance!

Cool character

The story is good and the book was enjoyable but it did seem like a lot of words with very little story.
