The Alliance Trilogy

Rate this book
Captain Jess Tolvern of HMS Blackbeard is leading a Royal Navy expedition across long-dormant space lanes toward Old Earth when an alien fleet ambushes her battle cruiser. The aliens are Adjudicators, an ancient race whose ethos is to judge other species and reduce their survivors to a stone age existence.

Tolvern sends a desperate message back to headquarters and retreats with her damaged ship to friendly systems. By the time she returns, the aliens have already invaded Alliance territory with a powerful fleet of star fortresses and accompanying dragoon ships, trapping and laying siege to the allied fleet.

While repairing her ship, Tolvern cobbles together a squadron of damaged allied warships, former raiders, and the local survivors of an Adjudicator attack to drive off the alien fleet.

OK-to-Good — but, VERY LONG and Drawn Out Series

This trilogy was OK, but its long, long, long drawn-out story makes it hard to rate it better. And, now that I’ve gotten to the end of The Alliance Trilogy — there’s a blurb about earlier Series by the Author that fill in a lot of the background. My advice is for you to find and read the earlier Series FIRST, to gain the best understanding of The Alliance (I, unknowingly, tried to piece it all together from this Series, and I believe the information was inadequate).

Really intense trilogy.

Not having read any of this author’s previous works, jumping right into this was really confusing. There was so much different terminology that it took me a while to catch up with everything but after I did, the trilogy was great.

If you are British and like the Royal Navy, and don't mind endless types of "ships" shooting at each other in space, this book might be for you.
I added the extra star because the author is not a bad writer. It's just what he's writing about.

Nice Collection

Well-written and relatable characters. My only criticism is the addition of the gigantic creature that seemed to be beyond the realistic scope of the story's plot and framework.

It has been awhile since I've read Michael Wallace and I had forgotten how good of a writer he is. The Alliance trilogy is good competent science fiction. Nothing exceptional, and there were no characters who I really cared about, but there is action and the story keeps moving along.

As the books are one space battle after another, all very detailed, many pages can be skipped. Yes, it gets boring and confusing with so many spaceships involved and trying to remember their names and are they ours or theirs.

Monotonous, therefore not recommended.

The Alliance Trilogy

Bad aliens came to destroy, kill and imprison all that they find. These ghoulish creatures have and continue to decimate humans in their zeal.

Purchased the whole trilogy for my Kindle which turned out to be the correct decision. Not sure I would have bought the third book after reading the second. The second volume was hard work and seemed a little disjointed jumping here and there, the introduction of the lord of lords and then just right him off in a paragraph was hard to understand. The third volume went some way to redeeming everything, the battle scenes were exciting with the result hanging in the balance.
