Customer Reviews

My Favorite in the Seafort series

Voices takes a very different sort of look at Nick Seafort's world and is a much more real and powerful book than the rest of the saga. Warning though, this book is not a big gaudy space opera, like the others. Nothing against space opera, but serious speculative fiction has its place too, and this is definately serious speculative fiction.

Not the same

What some of the reviewers here do not realize is that this book is not the same as the other four books about Seafort. No longer is he flying through space, this book is focusing on issues. This isn't as much a [part of the series as it is a stand alone, and I feel that it is extremely thought provoking and good. Kudos to David Feintuch

OUTSTANDING SAGA!!! A must for sci-fi fans...

I have just finished the first 4 books of the Seafort saga in less than a week... It is one of the best series I have ever read. Nick Seafort is plagued with his feelings of inadequacies and his "inabilities" to do anything right. Yet, as the reader will find, Seafort does everything right and is a true Naval Captain and leader... often placing his career on line for those he respects and loves. He is brusque, unjust, fair, a martinet, lenient, all at the same time. I just ordered Voices of Hope, and can't wait to read that one. Hopefully, this is NOT be the last of the Seafort saga... It would be nice to read of his adventures in the academy....

David Feintuch is /the/ finest author I have ever read.

I just put down Voices of Hope a mere few minutes ago, after reading the last half of the book straight through without stopping. David Feintuch continues to amaze with his realistic characterization.. These characters are honest to Lord God real people, with good points and bad. Some you will love, others you will hate, but by the end of the book you'll identify with them, and care about what happens. As for the plot itself, it is powerful and touching, masterfully written. I haven't read a story with such genius and thought put into it since Heinlein's 'Citizen of the Galaxy'. The entire Seafort Saga is a definite must-read for anyone, young or old, sci-fi fan or not

A classic in its own time.

The author, David Feintuch, really does have a "fine touch". I've come to look forward to all his books. His stories -move- and he makes me care about the characters. Such a well-woven weave of words is bound to be considered a classic by any who care to read them. What more can I say
