Description

Hold tight... things are about to get bumpy Sitting in his oppressively small 10 x 10 cell at the Norfolk Naval Station's Brig, Captain Galvin Quintos awaits his impending court-martial. That's when he has a most unexpected contact by Fleet Commander Admiral Block. He's proposing an off-book, secret operation -- one coming at the request of the Pleidian Weonan Empress Shawlee Tee. For Quintos, telling Shawlee "no" was never an option. Unfortunately, according to the admiral, this very well could be a mission of no return. The war with the Grish has turned desperate and the Alliance is tallying far more losses than wins. To complicate matters, all other US Space-Navy warship assets have been deployed to various hot spots within the quadrant. As for the mission, Fleet Commander Twinwon and his crew are on the run from a fleet of eighteen Grish Warships somewhere out within the farthest reaches of frontier space. The Empress knows she has no right to ask, but she has no one else to turn to -- she needs Quintos and the USS Hamilton's crew -- and she needs them now. Sure, this rescue may be coming too late -- but no one ever said being a hero was easy. First problem -- how the hell will Quintos escape from a Norfolk high-security detention facility...

Reviews:

USS Hamilton Sequel/Broadsides is an outstanding sequel to the USS Hamilton series!
Hardcore military science fiction from Mark Wayne McGinnis. I'm a big fan.-Carson Wheeler

Just as Good as Scrapyard Ship.
I've been a fan of Mark's since he wrote Scrapyard Ship. It was one of the best space opera books I've ever read. USS Hamilton Broadsides, and the USS Hamilton series are just as good. I love a great military scifi story, and McGinnis delivers every time.-Terrence B.

Great Military Science Fiction
Mark Wayne McGinnis has done it again. Space opera and military scifi come together in the USS Hamilton Broadsides This book is fun, exciting, and just a purely entertaining book. I also loved Heroes and Zombies! Devin

McGinnis makes scifi fun again!
Very enjoyable read. TIRED of reading books where the main character is always conflicted and overwhelmed. This was refreshing, enjoyable, fun, surprising, and a darn good read. Thanks, Mark!-Greg

Great Space Opera!
Book 3 of the USS Hamilton series is even better than the first two. A cross between BV Larson and Craig Alanson, only better. The difference with Mark is he writes with heart.-David

Better than Star Watch
I love Mark Wayne McGinnis. He always writes fun and entertaining science fiction. I've read his books from the beginning: Scrapyard Ship, Star Watch, Ship Wrecked, and the rest. The USS Hamilton Boadsides is a great blend of military scifi and space opera. I also just discovered Junket, Untamed Alien Worlds. Simply brilliant. - KJH

Mark Wayne McGinnis
I love good science fiction and I've read many authors including BV Larson and Craig Alanson. Mark is the best. If you don't believe me, pick up Scrapyard Ship or Star Watch or Ship Wrecked or The Fallen Ship, and read them. The USS Hamilton is just as good, if not better than his earlier works.-KPM

Well-Written Space Opera
This is an enjoyable romp. The never say die crew on a sure be one-way mission grabbed me and never let go. I read it in one sitting. This was fun; not as much fun as sex with a black-haired woman or a wild child redhead in her early twenties. But easily besting spending a night with a massively self-involved blond. Buy it and enjoy the ride.-Edward R. Hanson Jr.

Wow! What a Book!!
I can't believe how exciting this book was! I'm taken aback at how clever this book was written. Great adventure, wonderful characters, thrilling action. First-rate sci-fi. I'm ready for the next one!-Warren W. Ward
