Summary
The Phage War had been a devastating conflict for the Terran Confederacy. Even with the destruction of their terrifying, implacable foe, humanity is still reeling. Political alliances are crumbling, and their mighty fleet is in tatters. There is nothing to celebrate, even after such a complete victory.
They soon learn that there are other stellar neighbors - and they've been watching the conflict with great interest. One species comes with an offer of friendship and alliance, but humanity is weary and distrustful, their only interactions with aliens having resulted in the near eradication of their kind.
Before the ashes of war have been fully swept away, Captain Celesta Wright is dispatched to the Frontier with a small taskforce to investigate a mysterious signal while the Confederacy struggles to hold itself together. A partnership with this new species could help accelerate the recovery effort, but is the offer too good to be true? Can humanity risk another fight with an advanced alien species right on the heels of the bloodiest war that had ever been waged?
New Frontiers is the first book of the Expansion Wars Trilogy, an all-new adventure in the Black Fleet universe.

Good evolution of the story
Another good instalment of the story where we learn more about new space-faring civilisations, whilst getting to know some key characters even better.

EXPENSIVE
These short 8hr stories are too expensive!!
That being said, great narration as always from mark boyett.
Good story well told but too many of these flimsy small stories at over £1 per hour

Another great sci-fi story from Mr. Dalzelle
Well written, no-nonsense sci-fi that doesn't waste a word from start to finish. And with all your favourite characters from the Black Fleet Trilogy.

Classic, awesome Dalzelle Sci-Fi
In line with the quality of the Black Fleet Trilogy (not required to read before this series, but highly recommended).
Can't wait for the next installments!
