Avalon was the flagship of the Castle Federation in the last war, now 20 years past. The first of the deep space carriers, no other warship in the fleet holds as many honors or has recorded as many kills. No other warship in the fleet is as old. Accepting the inevitable, the Federation Space Navy has decided to refit her and send her on a tour of the frontier, showing the flag to their allies and enemies as a reminder of her glory - and then decommission her for good.
But Avalon has been a backwater posting for 10 years and has problems a mere refit can't fix. The systems along her planned tour have been seeing pirates for the first time in decades, and there are rumblings of Commonwealth scouting ships all along the border. It may be Avalon's final tour, but it looks to be anything but quiet.

What did you love best about Space Carrier Avalon?
Author does an excellent job of building his characters, equipment and science. It is believable, and he apparently did his homework regarding the physics involved. Unlike some reviews, the descriptions of characters physical appearance helps to build a picture of what they look like, as well as what is going on when things start getting rough. Very well thought out, original work. I highly recommend it to anyone liking good, well developed storylines and characters.What did you like best about this story?
Author develops his characters and the social structure of 800 years in the future, and doesn't make it an issue or "preaching". He simply has extrapolated what goes on today to a future society. That is all a good sci fi writer can do, and is right along with Heinlein's work.What does Eric Michael Summerer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Outstanding story teller, all the characters are unique, clear, and his females are feminine, and males are males. There is no confusion as to who is speaking, and what is said.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No, just enjoyed a well written story that was very well read.Any additional comments?
Excellent series, will love to see it continue.Excellent Series for Military Space fans

I will try the next book in this series to give it a chance but if it's not better than this one I'm sending it back and giving up on the rest or the books. And I'm being sceptical from now on buying Glynn Stewart's other series. He and Christopher Nuttall are not auto-buys as not everything they write is something I want to read (like Lois Bjold, whom I enjoy even if it's not her best writing).
Not thrilled but....
