Midshipman's Hope
A hideous accident kills the senior officers of UNS Hibernia -- leaving a terrified young officer to save three hundred colonists and crew aboard a damaged ship on a seventeen-month gauntlet to reach the colony of Hope Nation.

With no chance of rescue or reinforcement, Nicholas Seafort must overcome despair, exhaustion, guilt; he must conquer malfunctions, mutiny, and an alien horror beyond human understanding. He must save lives. And he must take them, in the name of duty.


"The most entertaining and best science fiction series in decades."
    LANSING STATE JOURNAL

"Midshipman's Hope and Challenger's Hope are prime examples of excellent science fiction action and adventure. These books are akin to a cross between Captain Hornblower and Ender's Game. I highly recommend Feintuch's works to any of you who enjoy a great story."
    MYSTERY GALAXY BOOKSTORE NEWSLETTER

"Compulsively readable and amazingly engaging. This is one of the best science fiction novels I have read in a long time."
    DANIEL KEYS MORAN, AUTHOR OF THE LAST DANCER

"Something special indeed... In Midshipman's Hope [Feintuch] has at last captured for the science fiction community the quintessential spirit of greats such as C. S. Forester and F. Van Wyck Mason."
    BILL BALDWIN, AUTHOR OF THE HELMSMAN SERIES

"A fine first novel that begins a highly promising saga of naval action in space. I wish Nicholas Seafort and his creator a long and prosperous voyage."
    ROLAND J. GREEN, AUTHOR OF THE STARCRUISER SHENANDOAH SERIES

"This series is probably the best military SF of the last twenty years, and among the best SF of any kind for that same period."

Midshipman's Hope


Chapter One

"Stand to!" I roared, but I was too late; even as Alexi and Sandy snapped to attention, Hibernia's two senior lieutenants strolled around the corridor bend.

We froze in stunned tableau: I, the senior midshipman, red with rage; a portly passenger, Mrs. Donhauser, jaw agape at the blob of shaving cream on her tunic; my two middies stiffened against the bulkhead, eyes locked front, towels and canisters still clutched in their hands; Lieutenants Cousins and Dagalow, dumbfounded that middies could be caught cavorting in the corridors of a U.N.N.S. starship, even one still moored at Ganymede Orbiting Station.

If only I'd come down from the bridge a few seconds sooner I'd have been in time, but I'd been helping Ms. Dagalow enter the last of our new stores into the puter's manifests.

Lieutenant Cousins was curt. "You too, Mr. Seafort. Against the bulkhead."

"Aye aye, sir." I stiffened to attention, eyes front, furious at my betrayal by a friend whose sense I'd thought I could trust.

Alexi Tamarov, the seating middy at my side, was sixteen and third in seniority. When I'd first reported aboard, he'd considered challenging me but hadn't, and we'd since become comrades. Now his an ... read full excerpt from Midshipman's Hope ebook
