First, some non-spoiler-y things... Writing style is really solid. Dialogue is easy to follow and makes sense with the characters' styles. Nothing seems stilted or artificial. Even with the downsides that I'll list below, this is a solid read and I plan to finish it.Now, fair warning... ****** POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW ******If you're moderately well-versed in popular sci-fi of the last 10 years or so, let me toss out a couple of plot points for you to consider...* Aliens nearly wiped out humanity, then disappeared back to the depths of space.* Aliens have been absent for the last 75-ish years.* One of the last of the warships that humanity used in the first war is on its way to being decommissioned and turned into a museum-piece.* The captain was a bit of a troublemaker and is nearly the only one in the fleet preaching readiness instead of complacency.* The XO is the captain's best friend, and is an alcoholic.* Some people in humanity have 'sold out' and made a deal with the aliens.* The aliens are going back on their deal and have come to wipe out humanity.* There's a 'back door' in humans' new generation of starships that will allow the aliens to easily destroy all of them...except for the one retiring ship.Ummm...don't know about you guys, but I saw Battlestar Galactica too. ### ⭐⭐ Ouch - Sorry, just not very good. *by N***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2017* This is my first review. I don't normally review anything. But I bought this book and felt the need to comment because, well, it's really not very good. I'd like to comment constructively in case the author reads, I don't want to denigrate the effort that it took to write this book.In a nutshell, this book is Battlestar Galactica, as everyone else has commented. I mean, not just derivative, but like a direct copy of it. I'd go so far as to say it's plagiarism... I couldn't get past chapter 25, and I have always finished every book i ever start except for one. Why read this when I know exactly how the story goes?I mean, the basic narrative structure of all stories is very similar (check out Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey). So many stories share a similar plot STRUCTURE. But not the actual plot points. Changing the names of the characters but using the same plot is unoriginal at best. Here's a quick summary of all the points this story shares with BSG:1. Cantankerous old captain in outdated starship2. Grouchy alcoholic XO3. Old ship slated to be turned into a museum4. Alien battle almost destroyed earth 70 years ago5. aliens disappeared then, haven't been seen since6. A traitor to humanity gave them the backdoor to our current tech7. They use this backdoor to attack8. Outdated spaceship is only one immune to this attack9. this ship shepherds a civilian fleetI can't even bring myself to continue.This author also needs a bit of work and critique to up his game. The characters are flat, unchanging, and boring. The dialogue is stilted and unrealistic. The cast is shallow and monochromatic, and as other reviewers have pointed out, anglocentric, white-centric, us-centric. It's just not believable.In any case, it takes a lot to write something. I certainly haven't written a novel. There's a value to putting out work even if it's not great. I just wish I'd not spent the money on it. I hope the author can continue to write and continue to improve. But this feels like a student novel, not something a reputable publisher would put out. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Addicting and action-packed novel! A must read for military sci-fi fans! *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2016* Hadn't read any of Nick Webb's books before but boy am I glad I finally gave Constitution a whirl. When the book gets going, its really never lets up. Nick Webb is a fantastic writer, and creates a blistering pace that flows so well. The action is solid, suspenseful and each chapter ends in ways that demand you keep reading. I found myself having to force myself to stop so I could do other things, like sleeping and eating! All in all this is a great, rock 'em sock 'em military sci-fi adventure and great start to the Legacy Fleet trilogy.There are a few reasons why I couldn't give this book a five-star review:1.) The Battlestar Galactica similarities are glaring, especially in the beginning. Even down to the titular ship about to be turned into a museum and being the one ship that can repel the Swarm when all newer vessels' tech is compromised. And let's not forget that Abe Haws, the main character's XO is basically Colonel Saul Tigh in everything but wife and name.2.) A small gripe, but the characters's physical descriptions were almost non-existent. Other than maybe Haws (who I just imagined as a bearded Col. Tigh), I really couldn't tell you want any other character looked like. Again, a personal gripe of mine but I like being able to visualize the characters through the writing and didn't feel I could do that here.3.) This was a big issue I've noticed in many futuristic sci-fi novels. The story takes place in the 27th century and there is like ZERO diversity among the main characters. Not really realistic at all given how diverse the US and other parts of the world are. We should have seen some Indian or Chinese characters in the main cast since in 2016 both countries combined equate 1/3 of Earth's population.4.) The threat to Earth was too focused on the US. The Swarm should have felt like a more global threat and not so US focused. Just saying.5.) The main character at times was stubborn to the point of stupidity in several instances, basically got a get out of jail free card for what should have been a terminal health issue at the end. I'm hoping that will be explained further in the next two books.Don't get me wrong, I still thoroughly enjoyed the book. Those points just subtracted from what could have been one of the best sci-fi novels I've read this year.
