Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Battle Cruiser: Lost Colonies, Book 1 at Amazon.com. So what started out as a freebie has introduced me to a full series of books by this writer that I intend to read. Mental popcorn.
I do wish there was more about the different cultures, histories, or philosophies surrounding the different human adaptations, but the descriptions about the different humans seem a bit one dimensional.I didn’t find the premise of the story to be unique, though the book was enjoyable once I was able to adjust to the change in writing style and and protagonist.

The writing flows easily giving the story a good pace. I'm hooked enough to want to buy the next one. A good holiday read. The Germans responded by laying an effective smoke screen. Do read!!

I have now gone back and bought Book One so that I can read how Star Force began.
Somewhat surprised by the narrative to be in first person - it makes the main character constantly commenting on his actions, which is a bit odd, however you get used to it.
Set in the aftermath of a worldwide cataclysm [we're not told what, just that something happened] and Earth has lost touch with its interstellar colonies. Audible is $16.45/mo after 30-days.
