I’ve been a fan boy for Glynn Stewart for a while now. This wraps up his various SF franchises with the Castle Federation series. He has another series that’s Urban Fantasy, but I haven’t followed him out to that yet. No fault of Glynn. UF and I don’t see eye-to-eye.

Castle Federation – and Space Carrier Avalon – is straight up military SF in the finest tradition. I ripped through the first three books in this series in a matter of days last year but I missed the fourth book’s release. An oversight I intend to remedy. This series has enough pew-pew to scratch the itch for action and enough characterization to make you care about who gets killed. I thoroughly enjoyed these.

But don’t take my word for it. As always, grab a sample and see for yourself.

I’ve been following Glynn’s work since I got turned on by Space Carrier Avalon and Starship Mage. We were going to be in a box this month, until Amazon’s decided that wasn’t going to happen. I admire Glynn’s work and his ability to turn out great stories.

The Terran Privateer is a military sf with a good dollop of intrigue stirred into the action. When Earth is conquered, Annette Bond is left in command of the only warship left and her mission seems impossible. Glynn spins out a yarn where things are seldom what they seem and where the story changes dramatically with each new reveal. I enjoyed it so much I was disappointed when the sequel wasn’t available.

I’ve heard a rumor that book two might be coming out soon, which would make this a good time to grab a sample of The Terran Privateer and see what you think.
