Breach of Faith #2
Breach of Faith
What once was his downfall becomes their saving grace.
Hard-fought skirmishes leave Captain James Henry and the Shadow Wolf limping into Lusitania’s port. Payday awaits once the undercover operative is safely delivered planetside to brief authorities on the League of Sol’s activities within neutral territory. But Jim learned long ago never to take anything at face value.
Especially with allies and enemies.
The Lusitanian Parliament bombing left unknown survivors, requiring martial law until new elections restore the fractured government. Chaos is the order of the day, proving the League is more than making inroads in this sector of the galactic arm.
Their advance is imminent.
The only way to stop the League from invading is for the Shadow Wolf to make a break for Trinidad Station and muster an army of pirates and privateers. But convincing them to fight for something other than profit is a battle Jim isn’t sure he’ll win, especially when converting enemies to allies requires trust against a highly trained military machine.
Now Captain Henry must marshal his former CDF experience to build a new coalition and outwit an enemy in a way they’ll never expect.
He’ll change the rules of engagement – and take the fight to the League.
If you love Babylon 5, The Expanse, and Destroyermen, you must read “Breach of Faith,” a space opera sci-fi series that will take you to the heart of duty, sacrifice, and the unseen scars of those who serve.

I just binge read the first two books of Daniel Gibbs Breach of Faith series, Breach of Peace and Breach of Faith. Set in the sane universe as other books by him, with war looming between the League of Sol (bad guys) and Terran Confederation (good guys, more or less), this book stars Captain James Henry, merchant skipper of the Shadow Wolf, and ex-navy man (who “dishonorably” left the Coalition Defense Force for the best reasons: in order to protect his fellow officers). Following Henry as he adventures through officially neutral space (and more) to first rescue a Coalition undercover operative and then deal with what follows is exciting, thrilling, stuff that’s pretty impossible to put down. In fact I only stopped at the end of book 2 because, darn it, book 3 isn’t out yet. I suppose that’s add string a recommendation as one can give - and I’m definitely looking forward to that book 3.

Good Guys Triumph
This is almost a David verses Goliath book. Where the good guys do triumph but not without a few bumps and bruises along the way. Great read. Big D

Daniel Gibbs did it again - he produced another thrilling novel that compares very well with David Weber's Honor Harrington series. I see parallels between Captain James Henry and Commander Alistair McKeon (from On Basilisk Station), both of whom have their respective disputes with their respective navies but both of whom are compelled to take a good look at their personal demons and motivations when outside circumstances force them to do a little inner exploration. It does not help either of them to be in the middle of long-planned enemy operations aimed at their respective responsibilties. Why did they want to be officers again?
I received a copy of this ARC from Hidden Gems and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

Well drawn characters and well described scenes. Holds your interest and makes you want to see what happens next. Everything is so well described, in fact, that I hope that there is some tv producer out there who would like to make this into a science fiction tv series. Would love to see that! The only thing I would recommend to the authors would be to strengthen the character of Capt. Henry. He started out with promise in the first book, but then seemed to become almost an afterthought. He needs more depth and a hint of dangerousness.

Military Sci-Fi with an added dimension
Gibbs and Stevens have created a believable universe for their well-realized and complex characters. And something unique: people and societies that are unashamedly religious, while others struggle with questions of faith. Rousing military science fiction in the tradition of Heinlein and Pournelle.

I stopped after the third book as it became too predictable for me.
The author frequently gives a rote description with exactly the same structure for each new character as they are introduced. I don't think the ethnic background and religious affiliation are interesting, material, or advances the plot.

A good continuation of the story. There’s quite a few good characters and if I had one complaint it’s that I wanted to read more about each of them. This one had a fair bit of space action which kept things moving . It will be interesting to see how the story progresses in the next book.

Better than the last.
I like this volume much better than the last and first installment. The action and plot were much better. In fact I kept reading until it was finished. Already downloaded breach of duty and starting it, the next volume now.

It's a Pleasure
It's a real pleasure when one comes across a new series that takes a new and different slant to a relatively common subject. I'm always up for a good spaceship battle and introducing the 'preppers' pet hate of an EMP into the mix just adds spice.

Good addition to the series
Interesting how Gibbs can take another persons life during the time span and show how it impacts them and keep it interesting. Very much enjoy his writings.

I like how the author writes with such descriptive sentence structure. It makes the whole story come to life, you can imagine their features and likeness of each individual character. Very entertaining, with a solid storyline that doesn't seem to rush or try to square up into a conclusion.

Continued good writing
Interesting from the get-go. Difficult to put the story down and get some sleep. Highly recommended to all the Sci Fi readers out there.

It just gets better
I greatly enjoyed reading this book two in the series. The action was fantastic, it leaves your heart pounding. I can't wait to read book three.

Love the characters
Action as usual was believable and timed well.
Captain Henry is turning into a real multi faceted personality.
Looking forward to the next 'breach'

Great storyline.
Well scripted characters, full of diversions and insights into the protagonists. I am looking forward to reading more about the team.
