The final battle?
Robert Jones' latest book in the series is probably his best. I'd say this one was written for the more "mature" audience, too. The author has maintained his talent for explaining situations and keeping the story flowing nicely. I found myself constantly trying to determine what was going to happen next.All the main characters still remain, with many of their lives changing with promotions and surprises along the way. I still enjoyed the comparison between the "old" U.S. Navy with the Colonial Navy in the story.I have a feeling that with the way this story ended, there may be a "continuation" for the series in the not too distant future.=

Product Description
The Belt Loop saga continues with the Colonial Navy and ships of the Varson Empire engaged in pitched battles for supremacy in the Orion-Cygnus arm of the Milky Way. The Varson strongman has developed a new weapon, a Planet Killer, and his plan is to use it on all of the Colonial worlds, destroying planet after planet until his swath of destruction reaches its final destination: Mother Earth. Uri Haad, wearing his first star as a Fleet Admiral, pulls out all the stops in an effort to foil the Varson madman. Haad's former Executive Officer Davi Yorn, at the helm of the refurbished Corpus Christi fast-attack boat, helps Admiral Haad meet the Varson threat head on but will it be enough? The Colonial Navy faces new threats to the Admiralty, diminished resources, weary battles of attrition, and continuing threats of destruction from within their own ranks. Will there be enough time to save the Colonial Alliance of Planets and stop the Varson incursion? Only time will tell, and the Colonial Navy is down to its last minute. Exciting deep-space science fiction in The Belt Loop. Approximately 102,000 words. Top to learn more

The best so far, but..
This is more a continuation of book 2 than book 1. SPOILER: The Varson continue their war, in the guise of their Warleader. He continues to execute people left, right and centre. However, one of his underlings, in a fit of initiative, despite the obvious dangers involved in not obeying orders to the letter (ie beheading), has developed a "Plant Killer" bomb. However, it is deployed so obviously that the Colonial Navy can pretty well detect where it will be deployed next. Why the Warlord does not go for the kill (ie attack one of the major planets) is anyone's guess.Unfortunately, the former stowaway Har Hansen is back, albeit in a reduced role. However, despite spending three years as a stowaway with little or no education, he is deemed academically suitable for the Naval academy with people of his same age. Bollocks! Further, unfortunately, he is "decorated" for his actions in book 1. More bollocks! I suppose it was almost an inevitable consequence of the way...
