Uneasy lies the head. In just a few months, Alacrity Fitzhugh and Hobart Floyt had claimed Hobart's inheritance from the ruler of a small interstellar empire then returned to Earth and toppled its government. They'd also become good friends. But Alacrity had more important goals than bodyguarding Hobart - he wanted command of the fabulous White Ship, the starship designed to track down the secrets of the ancient and powerful Precursor aliens. Yet it took only a few minutes at the White Ship's helm for Alacrity to learn that a captain's problems can be tougher than the "real work" of a knockabout Spacer - and that solving them could cost a piece of his heart.… (mehr)

One of the Great

This is the third and last of the books in this series, which I've loved and reread several times over the decades I've had them. I'd be bugging the author for more, if he'd not tragically died young. ( )

I always get the feeling Daley might have had another book in the back of his mind when he finished this story, chasing after Alacrity and Hobart and their search for Precursor secrets. Still, it's a satisfying end to the trilogy. ( )

Title: The Fall of the White Ship Avatar Series: The Terran Inheritance Author: Brian Daley Rating: of 5 Battle Axes Genre: SFF Pages: 292 Format: Kindle Synopsis: Alacrity and Floyt are hot on the trail of Precursor artifacts and Alacrity is bound and determined to be on the council of the White Ship, which appears to be tied to his family's history. Only Floyt has seen the future, from the causality harp, and knows that Alacrity will not be the Lord and Master of the White Ship. Will their friendship survive? In fact, will they survive? My Thoughts: First, the kindle editions I have state on the inside cover that the series name is The Terran Inheritance. I don't have access to old paperbacks but I'd bet a dollar that that same page is in them as well. But everywhere I go I see the series as the protagonist's names. The Adventures of Alacrity Fitzhugh and Hobart Floyt, while descriptive, is simply to long and unwieldy. It is too bad that Daley still isn't around to kick some ass and get things straightened out. This was partly about Fitz and Ho getting off a planet of sentient cattle-like beings and then about taking over the White Ship. While Alacrity's past has been hinted at in the previous books, here it takes front and center and it is a bit disconcerting. He goes from a talented space bum to some kind of Old School Space Admiral in about 2 breaths. It wasn't that it didn't make sense but it was different from the previous 2 books. If I had wanted different I'd have gone and read a different book. Daley was a good writer and a fun writer and that just shines on through even in the more serious moments. I have to hunt down his Coramande books but I'm in no big hurry as that is all I have to look forward to from him. Because he's dead. " ( )

The final book in the series. Need to reread this, I liked it at the time, but don't recall enough about it 30 years later. ( )
