Synopsis

Captain John “Black Jack” Geary has come home after a century of cryogenic sleep to find the war between the Alliance and the Syndicate Worlds still raging.

A legendary hero, he is promoted to fleet admiral—even though the ruling council fears he may stage a military coup.

Geary has never fought for the sake of glory. His new rank means only that he has the authority to negotiate with the Syndics, who have suffered tremendous losses and may finally be willing to end the war. With grim determination, Geary leads
the fleet back out into Syndic space.

This seasoned commander knows surrender never comes easy. But even as he steels himself to confront the immediate enemy, he is all too aware that a greater alien threat lurks on the far side of Syndic-occupied space …

Still, handled well and I got passed it. At least it wasn't still with our resident politician wh......more

Goodreads review by Mr. Matt on September 06, 2014

The story of Admiral Geary the Lost Fleet comes to a close. Wracked by massive losses in the war, and with their economy pushed to the brink, the Syndicate worlds collapse into chaos. Star system after star system is engulfed in Civil War. Into this fray, the newly promoted Fleet Admiral Geary leads......more

Goodreads review by AndrewP on October 13, 2018

The final book in the Lost Fleet series, or at least the last book in the story arc. If you have read any of these then you can partially guess how it ends up. There is still one huge unanswered question and the later parts of this book does start to explore that. I'm guessing that later books from......more
