    About this audiobook

    Avalon was the flagship of the Castle Federation in the last war, now twenty years past. The first of the deep space carriers, no other warship in the fleet holds as many honors or has recorded as many kills. No other warship in the fleet is as old.
    Accepting the inevitable, the Federation Space Navy has decided to refit her and send her on a tour of the frontier, showing the flag to their allies and enemies as a reminder of her glory-and then decommission her for good. But Avalon has been a backwater posting for ten years and has problems a mere refit can't fix. The systems along her planned tour have been seeing pirates for the first time in decades, and there are rumblings of Commonwealth scouting ships all along the border. It may be Avalon's final tour, but it looks to be anything but quiet.

      Great book. Started a little slow but picked up quick. Highly recommend
    • 5/5
      I started with the last book of this series and it is a testament of the excellent writting of the author as well as this narrator for this audio book as I normally refused to go through the earlier episodes of a series that I missed. Good balance of suspense and action throughout the entire series. The author must be a history buff as he raised parallels of historic figures from ww2 IJA, ww2 leaders like General Patten,the civil war general Robert E Lee...
    • 3/5
      The story is ok, all the stereotypical elements were present; but the constant reminders of the date, time, and place is annoying enough to keep me from listening to any more if this series.
