Summary: The Excellence Continues
Review: Prisoner's Hope continues the hardships and adversity that plagues Nicholas Seafort. In this book, he is wounded in a duel, has to stop a rebellion, has to protect a planet from attacking aliens, and has to commit an act of high treason in order to do so. Feintuch never has disappointed me. Read it!

Summary: book 3 of the Seafort saga is exciting, and well written
Review: Recovering from injuries, seperated from all those he loves. Nicholas Seafort must stop a rebellion. No matter the cost to himself, or his beliefs.

Rating:
Summary: Too much moaning
Review: The first one of this series was very good, but the second one was simply unremitting gloom. I didn't even finish the third one, because I was tired of Nick's continual moaning about how bad his life was.

Rating:
Summary: The making of a legend!
Review: The third book in the Seafort saga and it is as good if not better than the other two. Nicholas (Nicky) Seafort battles his insides as much as anyone else does ( you or me) but his battle is stronger than anything that we can possibly imagine. The story takes place most of the part in Hope Nation where Seafort battles his own demons, beliefs and anything imaginable. This book is very hard to put down for us Sci-Fi addicts but also for a newcomer to Science Fiction. I can only hope that you will enjoy this book as much as me

Summary: Too much tortured soul
Review: This series is a painful one to read. Nick Seafort suffers from two problems: the typical hero's being in all the wrong places at the wrong time, and his personal and bizarre code with which he tortures himself at every turn. This story is worst than most, as more and more characters seem to have this trait of unbreakable personal codes for which any violation is unforgivable. It makes any character interactions painful to read as you wonder who will say or do the wrong thing to offend honor or duty and be eternally ostracized. The science fiction, however, is gripping. If Feintuch were to devote more to SF and less to gloom, he'd be fantastic.

Summary: Another great one in the series!
Review: Well written, with a strong plot and powerful sense of conflict. The only gripe I have is that the main character seems to be his own worst enemy. He is continually snapping at people and psychologically brutalizing them, all in the name of his "god" (basically the rules of the navy) and then moaning about what a terrible person he is and how everyone hates him and how he hates himself. He'll do something bad, agonize over it, and then turn around and do it again. I find myself wondering if he will ever grow as a character.
