From a John W. Campbell Award-winning author: The original trilogy chronicling the military science fiction adventures of Nicholas Seafort.
In a "splendid homage to the grand tradition of the old seafarer's tale," the Seafort Saga tells the story of an intergalactic captain's journey through the galaxy (Roger MacBride Allen). Now, the first three installments of this epic series are available in one volume.
Midshipman's Hope: The year is 2194. Seventeen-year-old Nicholas Seafort is a fresh recruit with the United Nations Naval Service, serving as midshipman onboard the UNS Hibernia. En route to the colony of Hope Nation, the ship answers a distress call-only to lose the senior command staff in a daring rescue attempt. The chain of command has elevated Seafort into a leadership role he never anticipated. Surrounded by resentful and potentially mutinous officers, Seafort earns his stripes throughout Hibernia's voyage, but his real trial awaits at Hope Nation with a startling revelation for humanity.
Challenger's Hope: Capt. Nicholas Seafort was in command of the UNS Challenger until he was assigned to Adm. Geoffrey Tremaine's task force. Removed from his flagship, Seafort has been given the smaller UNS Portia, transporting colonists to the world of Detour. But an alien attack devastates both ships, leaving dozens of crewmen and passengers dead. Only UNS Challenger is in good enough condition to bring the survivors home-provided Seafort can regain and retain his captaincy.
Prisoner's Hope: Nicholas Seafort's disastrous mission as captain of the UNS Challenger cost him nearly everything. The aliens responsible for decimating the United Nations Naval fleet are still a threat to the colony world of Hope Nation, whose inhabitants feel abandoned as the navy returns to Earth. To save the colonists, Seafort will have to sacrifice everything he has left and commit an act of high treason that could result in his death sentence.
