A force that ends up being a fleet of Alliance A.I. warships. Geary has to defeat them before they learn too much and become unstoppable. His only hope? To find their base, and remove it. Leviathan is the best book out of them all so far. I feel it was always going to come to this ending, I'm just sad it didn't end the way I was hoping for it to end. Maybe a future series, alas. Leviathan is a good ending to Geary's story, for now. I think Campbell has more planned, though. Everything that was started in the Beyond the Frontier series has been dealt with. There is only one thing left that the series started out with: taking this evil, incompetent, frustrating government down. Another series hopefully. The Alliance Government has taken things a step too far. They have created an entire fleet out of Artificial Intelligence run ships. No people at all. And they have all been updated to Geary's tactics. This is the physical magnification to the height of Alliance incompetence. And now it is made worse because Geary is effectively fighting himself. He has to outthink himself. It is a good thing he has Desjani there to help him. She has been with him through this entire journey, dissecting what he has been doing. I love how this relationship grew over the course of the two series, to the point where Desjani is now considered not the wife of Black Jack Geary, but a competent leader in her own right. Everything is made worse due to years of classifying everything. This embodies "the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing." Everything to do with the war has been highly classified for longer than anyone can really remember. And not even everyone who should know in the government does know, once again due to extreme classifying of data. I hate it and it annoys me. Yet, I understand why Campbell did it. The end. Well. I wasn't expecting it to end how it did. I may have cried a little. I won't spoil it but I really wasn't expecting it. I'm glad it happened that way, and I hate that it happened that way. This is the last in this series. I have the side series and the prequel series left to read, and I'm looking forward to reading them now much more than I did before I started this series. Side Note: The cover is amazing, and adequately covers exactly what to expect out of the end of Leviathan and the Beyond the Frontier series. This series is a bunch of unconnected happenstances where the antagonist is the political leadership served by Geary and the fleet. Awesome space battles against huge odds mean that a couple of characters we trust throughout the series don't make it to the end of this book. As usual, the ending isn't one and it just means you're off to purchase the next book. Leviathan is the continuing adventures of Admiral John Geary (Black Jack) and the Alliance Fleet he commands. Jack Campbell returns us to the space battlefields that I have enjoyed so much in the series so far with lots of actions and a few new twists to keep it interesting. This was a quick and fun read that will hopefully lead to some additional storylines in the future. 4 stars for a great military sci-fi story and recommended for all Campbell fans!!! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
"Two Syndicate Worlds star systems have fallen prey to a mysterious fleet of warships a fleet controlled entirely by artificial intelligence that is now targeting Alliance space. The warships are no mystery to Geary. They were developed by his government to ensure security, but malfunctioned. If the Syndics learn the truth, the war with the Alliance will resume with a vengeance. As the government attempts to conceal the existence of the AI warships and its role in their creation Geary pursues them, treading a fine line between mutiny and obedience. But it soon becomes clear that his fleet is no match for the firepower of the machine-piloted armada. With the help of the Dancer species of aliens, Geary has tracked the AI ships to their secret base in the supposedly mythical Unity Alternate star system, where his fleet, the last hope for the Alliance's future, will end the conflict at any cost"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden.
