About this ebook

Center of Gravity is the second book in the explosive Star Carrier series by Ian Douglas—and a breathtaking new high in military sf, the strongest of the science fiction subgenres. Battlestar Galactica fans will adore this saga of ultimate war in deep space, as humankind risks its very future, battling a vast alien evil empire in order to achieve transcendence and become a major power in the universe. Douglas’s Center of Gravity belongs on every action-lover’s sf bookshelf—right between Joe Haldeman’s The Forever War and Heinlein’s Starship Troopers.

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed this book as much as the first in the Carrier Series. It is extremely entertaining and will get you the reader caught up in the story. I can't wait for book 3! This series in my opinion isn't recommended to those who don't like space or sci-fi novels. The editor of this series also needs to read through the book more thoroughly as there are some grammatical issues.

Not entertaining. More of the same plot, over and over again. I am done with this author.

The writer's attention to detail was annoying to say the least. And extremely repetitive.
