Imagine, if you will, you've turned up uninvited at a new friends house, just as they are about to host a party.

Whilst surprised to see you, they none-the-less invite you in and introduce you to their friends (new to you).

Then your own relatives, who only have a passing relationship with your mate, start showing up uninvited as well; start being pass-remarkable, making demands and throwing their weight around.

That's pretty much the situation facing Admiral 'Black Jack' Geary, out beyond the frontiers of human space, in this the latest novel in the long-running 'Lost Fleet' series, with - as it turns out - experimental (and dangerous) jump space technology leaked to those left behind after he started his journey - technology that makes everything, in the words of one character 'more so'.

The result is another enjoyable read in the series, with plenty of plot threads left hanging for the inevitable sequel.

[Fatal Forecast] by [Michael J. Tougias] was a very well written account of a prediction disaster on George's Bank. Unfortunately when we learn to rely on technology and the people in charge decide to cut corners lives can be lost. That is what happened with this storm. The fishermen did not get an accurate forecast because two bouy's were not working.

I really enjoyed this book and it gave me my non fiction fix.

Space travel is of no interest to me. I started watching this not knowing exactly what it was about and the first scenes drew me in. I liked the futuristic technology and the stories between the characters, particularly Tom Haggerty and his daughter. The amount of episodes should have been cut in half though, a lot of it was very long and drawn out where nothing much seems to happen, this spoilt it for me.
