I finished Warship by Joshua Dalzelle the first in the Black Fleet Trilogy. I didn't enjoy this one. The science was unbelievable and inconsistent. Too many coincidences and all setbacks easily overcome. And finally, the expected d.e.m at the conclusion was silly. The ebook suffered from severe formatting issues (sentences would end and continue further down the page and letters cutoff by right margins) and numerous typos.
Poor self-publishing effort. Unedited and not proofed. Rated D [1 star].

Next is another self-published book, Invasion by Platt and Truant.

Added: To be fair, I am not fond of sci-fi where it takes 9 hours to orbit a planet and months at FTL speed to reach your destination. Yet, communications take days and missiles find all their targets despite the time and sensor lag waiting for light to catch up.
