Each book in this series gets a little more bizarre than the rest. In this episode of the story, Captain Maddox accidentally enters a portal that results in him traveling 200 light years to the other end of the galaxy where he is immersed in a primitive human solar system. Getting ahead in this culture is achieved by killing your superior. Maddex ultimately discovers that Metusula Women Myers is in the system with plans to revive a Builder whose plan is to abolish humanity. Using his cleverness, Maddox succeeds in outsmarting Myers and getting the entire solar system's human population back within the protection and resources of Earth. There are other events and side stories that further support my opinion of the book's questionable scientific possibilities. The book is entertaining and, with some knowledge of the universe that Vaughn Heppner created in the series' previous books, is an easy read.… (altro)

The Fenris story slowed down in this, the second book of the trilogy. After escaping the Kresh aliens in the first book, Cyrus Gant, the main character, joined a primitive tribe of humans bioengineered with great strength and a lung capacity that helps them survive in the low oxygen atmosphere of a gas giant moon planet. The tribe's shaman, who has a great deal of historic and outward knowledge that had been mentally passed down from her predecessors, transfers that knowledge to the tribe's warriors so they have the information they need to free the "Anointed One" from the Kresh. The anointed one is a human prophesized to free humans from their subservience to the Kresh overlords. Together, Cyrus and the warriors free the anointed one from a Kresh experimental lab and hide out in the cloud coverage of the gas giant. They are hiding there until one of two potential foretold wars between the enslaving aliens and their prime enemies occurs. They hope that the war gives them cover to go to Earth and warn humanity about Kresh's intent to invade humanity’s home world and subjugate them.… (altro)

A teen is snagged from an underground ghetto due to his psychic abilities. He's subsequently schooled further in those abilities and history by an overpopulated Earth government. With others who have his ability, he volunteers to psychically power a spaceship on its voyage to a distant star system. Two habitable Eden-type planets occupy the supposedly unoccupied star system but, when they arrive, they are captured by the system's dominant alien dinosaur-like race. The teen manages to escape into the bowels of the space station he's brought to for processing and is recruited by the resistance.

This is not a stand-alone book; but only the first in the Fenris trilogy. I've already purchased the second and third books in the series as I find the story compelling. Written from the teen's perspective, the narration is cerebral with sufficient action to keep it interesting.

Captain Maddox risks his life to save humanity and avenge his father's death at the hands of the Throne World's New Men Emperor. I had gotten tired of this series, but Book 14 proved otherwise as I couldn't put it down. The next four Lost Starship series books have already been published so, fortunately, o wait for the next episode.
