Fleet Opposed by Chuck Grossart is a gripping start to The Han Wars series, plunging readers into a high-stakes military conflict that promises to keep you on the edge of your seat. The story kicks off with Commander Jackson Flynn, the new captain of the RSS Repulse, who finds his routine mission shattered by a devastating Han sneak attack. As Flynn and his crew fight to fend off the invasion, they discover that the enemy is not only external but also within their own ranks. Meanwhile, Junior Captain Anka Siljan of the Han Navy begins to question her allegiance when she learns the war's catalyst was a lie. Torn between duty and morality, Siljan faces a heart-wrenching decision that could change the course of the war.

Chuck Grossart's writing in Fleet Opposed is both compelling and immersive, making it a standout in the military science fiction genre. The plot is fast-paced and reminiscent of Pearl Harbor, filled with intense battle sequences and unexpected twists that keep the tension high. Grossart excels in character development, providing depth to both heroes and antagonists. You can't help but feel a mix of admiration and frustration toward the characters as their complex motivations unfold. The pacing is excellent, ensuring that the action never lets up, while the themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the blurred lines of morality are deftly explored. The vivid descriptions and realistic combat scenarios make it easy to visualize the epic space battles. If you're a fan of Marko Kloos or Jay Allan, Fleet Opposed is a must-read that will leave you eagerly anticipating the next installment in The Han Wars series. It's a thrilling, thought-provoking read that's well worth your time.
