Dauntless
John G. Hemry

The 1st in the lost fleet series. We start as our hero John “Black Jack” Geary wakes up after 100 years in a cryogenic sleep to find a never ending war and himself a national hero and propaganda tool. Due to a military disaster Captain Geary finds himself in charge of a fleet of spaceships far behind enemy lines. Doubting his abilities he still manages to win through. It’s a bit like Sharpe in space. The logistics of space travel and battle are well thought out but don’t bog down the plot. One of the best military sci-fi books I’ve read in recent years.
