Mutineer's Moon
by
David Weber
The book begins with a mutiny and ends fifty one thousand years later. Not a complete enough summary for you? Well maybe this will help more. The backdrop of the story is nothing less then the Galaxy in its entirety. Mankind, and many other species, have been chased and exterminated by a ruthless race called Achuultani. Now, the Achuultani do not play an active part in this book but they do provide the motive for many of the actions and reactions played out in the book. This is only logical as any race, which nearly exterminates your race several times, is bound to have an impact. The story we are told in 315 pages takes place on Earth in the near future. Two factions of long-lived humans fight a clandestine war to determine the future of Earth. All the action takes place unknown to the great majority of humanity. Two characters prove to be the main characters throughout this novel and the next two books so far. These two characters are Colin MacIntyre, Lt. Commander US and an ancient spaceship named Dahak. |
