3.0 out of 5 stars Belay that whining, Seafort!, Sep 25 2003

By	Erik Schultz (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Fisherman's Hope (Mass Market Paperback)

I must say that by this point in the Seafort Saga, Seafort's whining is just getting to be too much. Admitedly, he has reason to whine - he is the most improbably unlucky man in the universe. Everything that can be dumped onto him is, and by the time I was done this volume, I had had quite enough. Once again Seafort behaves badly to save the day - for the third book in a row (though his "damning" behaviour in Challeger's Hope is really just a problem in his own head, IMHO).

So while this one was not a favorite, the series is still worth sticking with - Voices of Hope is very good, and has far less of Nick Seafort in it, and none of his guilt-ridden internal dialogue.

4.0 out of 5 stars More angst-ridden adventure with Nick Seafort, Jul 28 2000

By	Christopher Griffen "Commitment to mediocrity!" (Pleasanton, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Fisherman's Hope (Mass Market Paperback)

If there's one thing you can say about the Hope series, it's that Feintuch manages to grow the characters but still manages to keep their basic premises intact. Nicholas Seafort's ongoing quest for honor and redemption continues here where he becomes an instructor at the Lunar academy where he earned his commission. The story is gripping and the final outcome was not what I expected at all. Great stuff!

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific, May 23 2000

By	Bob Knuckles (Antwerp, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fisherman's Hope (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the Gadfather Part II of the series. In this book we see flashbacks of Nick's life and time in the academy, we also learn how his father raised him. Nick is now the head of the naval academy. An attack by Nick's alien adversaries causes him to take immediate action. But the only way he can fight them, is with the help of his cadets. The ending of Nick's journal is especially moving.
