Fighting for the Crown: Good entry in the Ark Royal series.
This is the 16th book in the Ark Royal series by Christopher Nuttall and I’ve read them all. Pretty much all of them have been 4 or 5 star ones with only two in the 3 star range. Continue reading Fighting for the Crown: Good entry in the Ark Royal series.

The current Ark Royal story arc is good solid military science fiction with, as the book blurb states. a divided humanity against an alien foe with a very unusual twist. Continue reading Para Bellum: Another great military sci-fi book in this series.

The Cruel Stars: Not as god as the other books in the series.
Now, as I wrote above, it is a good and well written story. If you like this kind of story you will find the book excellent. Personally I liked the original Ark Royal story better.

We Lead -Another good read from Christopher Nuttall
Another good, solid read in the military science fiction genre from Christopher Nuttall. As the book blurb states humanity finally gets an edge over the enemy…or do they? It is an experimental device and a one shot one at that, and the enemies technical superiority when it comes to missiles are still there. This is a book with fierce battles as well as sacrifices. Continue reading We Lead -Another good read from Christopher Nuttall
Fear God and Dread Naught – Good solid military science fiction.
This is a good solid military science fiction read. It is the 8th instalment in the Ark Royal series and a worthy one. As usual there is a good story, likable (and not so likable) characters and some good solid action in space and on the ground. It was a very enjoyable book to read. Continue reading Fear God and Dread Naught – Good solid military science fiction.
Vanguard – A good start of a third story arc in the Ark Royal series.
Vanguard starts a third story arc (or trilogy if you so prefer) in the Ark Royal series. The Ark Royal series is one of my favourite book series and this book gives me no reason to change my mind. Vanguard is a good piece of military science fiction with some of the classical ingredients that I happen to like quite a lot like a strong hero, a set of mysterious alien invaders and plenty of space action. Continue reading Vanguard – A good start of a third story arc in the Ark Royal series.
A Small Colonial War – A good conclusion to the Warspite story arc in the Ark Royal series.
This is a very good book and I would not mind if Mr Nuttall continued with the stories in the Ark Royal universe. If nothing else I would really like to see one of those new Vanguard ships become reality and dish out some pain against whoever or whatever that got in their path. […] Continue reading A Small Colonial War – A good conclusion to the Warspite story arc in the Ark Royal series.

Warspite: A new and somewhat different story arc in Nuttall’s Ark Royal universe.
Warspite (Warspite #1) by Christopher Nuttall My rating: 8 out of 10 stars Peace is not freedom. Peace is merely the absence of war.

Ark Royal – Great science fiction book
Ark Royal by Christopher Nuttall My rating: 9 out of 10 stars Seventy years ago, the interstellar supercarrier Ark Royal was the pride of the Royal Navy. But now, her weapons are outdated and her solid-state armour nothing more than a burden on her colossal hull. She floats in permanent orbit near Earth, a dumping ground for the officers and crew the Royal Navy wishes … Continue reading Ark Royal – Great science fiction book
