Evan Currie is a mil-sf-fast-actinon-drug. He's highly addictive. Sure, not everyone goes in for Space Opera performed by a ballet of dreadnoughts in space. That's fine, and you probably should stay away, because if you try it, you may find yourself taken by his characters and then its too late. .

This book takes place pretty deep into the saga, and I wouldn't jump in here. Go back to the beginning. If you're already a reader, I'm not sure why you're reading a review rather than the book. Get to it.

Ok so I am a bit of a Evan Currie fan.
Having read several of his previous books this certainly did not let me down.
A wonderful space opera that just keeps giving although it does help to have read the previous books in the series.

Evan Currie writes really kick ass science fiction. He has not let up on the action, danger and tension in Odysseus Ascendant. I enjoyed the book even though I have not read all the book in the Odyssey One series. I knew I had missed the action from some of the previous books but it was still an easy story to get into. While the danger is countered the big problem is still roaming the galaxy so look for more action and adventure in future books.

I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.

Read Odysseus Ascendant by Evan Currie, Book 7 in the Odyssey One series. A solid continuation of the series that doesn't drag into most of the problems that series do. Provides the insights and challenges of new ideas.

"Odysseus Ascendant" eBook was published in 2018 and was written by Evan Currie (http://evancurrie.ca). Mr. Currie has published more than 20 novels. This is the seventh in his "Odyssey One" series.

I categorize this novel as ‘PG’ because it contains scenes of Violence and Mature Language. The story is set in the far future. The primary character is Commodore Eric Weston of the Priminae/Earth Alliance.

While Weston is the primary character, the story spends time with several other characters on both sides of the conflict. After two unexpected defeats, the Empire wants to destroy those who have dared to oppose them. As an Empire fleet bears down on Priminae space, Weston and the other allied commanders must find a way to stop them.

Complicating this is the being that was discovered living on the Odysseus in the last book "Odysseus Awakening". The creature appears as a young boy, yet it has considerable power. Is it the spacecraft embodied, or is it more?

I thoroughly enjoyed this 303 page science fiction novel. I have read most of the series and have enjoyed them all. I like the way the author has spread the story over many characters instead of focussing on just a few. This book reads well enough on its own, but I would recommend starting with the first book in the series. I like the cover art. I give this novel a 4.5 (rounded up to a 5) out of 5.

My book reviews are also published on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/31181778-john-purvis).

Set in the far future of space travel, Odysseus Ascendant (#7 in the Odyssey One series) continues the battles of survival against The Empire. I've read all of these and enjoy each new installment.

This science fiction is known as Space Opera (Space opera is a subgenre of science fiction that emphasizes space warfare, melodramatic adventure, interplanetary battles, chivalric romance, and risk-taking.) Source

Think Star Wars, which is probably the best known space opera of all. The only thing missing is romance. Canadian author Evan Currie's characters are more concerned with friendship, duty, and allegiance.

The novels are full of adventure, suspenseful, and strangely believable. I look forward to each new offering!

Read in March; Blog review scheduled for May 1.

Science Fiction. May 8, 2018. Print length: 304 pages.

I received a free copy of Odysseus Ascendant (Odyssey One, Book 7) by Evan Currie in exchange for an honest review. The empire has no more tolerance for the defiance of the Priminae and the anomalies allied with them. When the empire learns that humans only inhabit one world, it decides to eliminate the resistance permanently. The empire is coming! How will the grossly outnumbered and outgunned humans of the Sol system survive?

I enjoyed this book. It had a clear story line that advanced the series. It was a nice way to spend a very long drive.
