Dust Bunny (Rust Bucket Universe Book 3) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

The Malakin warships came streaking in at high speed. A number of them were taken out quickly as several squadrons of warships, both new and old, fired a barrage of weapons at them. The fighters attempted to get inside the Malakin formation. They scored some hits before the Malakin warships got past them to enter Beulah's atmosphere and begin a bombardment of the ground with their heavy weapons. Diane stabbed at the intercom switch near her and shouted, "Close hatches and launch!" She ran through the passages to reach the bridge. It took her almost thirty seconds to reach the bridge. Just before she reached it, a voice sounded over the intercom, "All hatches secure!" Diane barely reached her seat and strapped in before the G-forces hit her while her ship climbed up into space to be the first to meet the enemy. "All right, battle stations! Launch fighters!" she commanded as they left the atmosphere behind. Within another thirty seconds, her cruiser was flanked by a fighter wing ready to do combat. At the same time, other ships gathered about her cruiser. The squadron leader's cruiser took his position at the lead. "Well done, Dust Bunny! All capital ships use individual initiative when the enemy gets here," the squadron commander radioed. The Rust Bucket Universe Series begins in Rust Bucket with the first official discovery of intelligent alien life and Dave Oden's initial rejection, and later acceptance, by the Navy. Attack Butterfly, book two, introduces the first graduates from the academy under Oden's schooling and concludes in a war with a new race out to conquer The Federation. Dust Bunny finds Oden risking his reputation and his life to strengthen the Universal Rights Bill of the Union of Planets in the midst of a showdown in space. Dust Bunny, like the other books in series, is a modern space opera. The battle scenes are realistic and well researched. Right goes all out against Might. The fourth in the series, Paravoid, is now available.
