Summary

One of the few survivors of a League sneak attack on his poor and miserable homeworld of Carescria, Wilf Brim sets out to settle the score. Were it not for the attrition from the war that followed, Wilf would never have escaped his lower-class status and been accepted into the Academy. Now, freshly graduated, young Sublieutenant Wilf Ansor Brim, Imperial Fleet, begins his first assignment, Helmsman of the I.F.S. Truculent.

Intended for mature audiences.

Space Opera with attitude and heart?

This, together with its sequel "Galactic Convoy" is true, blue, space opera in the style of the master; E.E. Doc Smith. Our hero finds himself in numerous cliff-hanger situations that he escapes by the skin of his teeth! Then manages to become involved with 'Galactic Royalty', in the form of a Princess, no less! Really enjoyable stuff.
