Summary

On her maiden voyage, HMS Warspite discovered Vesy, a world populated by primitive aliens, aliens whose culture had already been twisted and warped by human refugees from the First Interstellar War. Now, Captain John Naiser and his crew spearhead a diplomat mission to the alien homeworld, hoping to ease them into the galactic mainstream. But with hundreds of others hoping to influence and shape the developing alien culture, and all hell threatening to break loose as human ideals meet alien realities, events on Vesy might just mark the start of a new interstellar conflict....

And a civil war that will tear the human sphere apart.

disappointing

I have listened to the previous books in this series and this one was sadly disappointing. just a political story. no real action as such. a shame.

star trek was right.

this is why we have a prime directive in star trek and why we shouldn't interfere in other cultures and tell them how they should act.
anyway good story

boring

The previous books were ok in fact quite good but this last one started off slowly and became more and more boring and by chapter 26 it really felt like a fill in with little or ne story as if the author had said ah book 4 in the series what can we fill these pages with. It has put me off buying the others in the series. sorry not impressed

The usual boys own stuff from Nuttall

Military sci-fi is Marmite and divides opinion. I'm pretty much a fan, so I can't claim to be fully objective. Nuttall writes simple stuff, with little other than adrenalin driven excitement to commend it, but I'm hooked and can't wait for the next book.

better narration this time

the narrator is better than last time. But if I had one criticism of the text it would be that the phrase "I say again" seems to be endlessly used in the text. Just started to grate after a while.

Excellent series continues

My only criticism is the narrator fails to indicate the end of one scene and the start of the next.
This gets very annoying just for the lack of taking a breath of air.
Looking forward to book six.

Absolutely brilliant

I started on ark royal and can’t wait to listen to the next. I have been reading books for nearly 50 years and this is my favourite author.

Boring and Stuffy

Boring and Stuffy. Military personnel are utterly unbelievably boring, stuffy and lame with their dialogue and mannerisms. Highly unrealistic as officers are all stiff lipped, protocol obsessive, contradictive robots with almost no room for personality, while subordinates are just infuriating stereotypes. All of whom inspire no investment by the reader into wanting to know more about them.

While this is meant to be a slow burn in being a cold war going hot. It is very slow with some topics being too laboured while others are just boring. Liked the first 3 books, not a fan of these 3.

Good Title

Another good title in the series, not as good as the first series but hoping vanguard blows it out the water. Good job.
