Finished Dauntless by Jack Campbell. The first in The Lost Fleet series. The book frustrated me as it went along. I realize I don't care for the realistic time-lag process. Everyone has to wait minutes, hours or days for light to reach them to see what had happened or was said. And, of course, all information received is immediately outdated. A casual conversation takes hours between responses. Other than that the novel was OK. Grade it a C- [2 stars]. I won't read the others in the series.
Next, by way of a GR friend recommendation, Instruments of Darkness by Imogen Robertson. Her debut novel a historical mystery taking place in 1780 Sussex.
