| Seafort Saga | comment |
Queen Victoria's Navy updated with new equipment and put into a Space Opera. Not literally. That is just the feeling of the premise of this series of SF novels by David Feintuch, which can be a lot of reading fun, if that is what you are looking for. For a similar feeling see: the Honor Harrington series by David Weber.note The series even has a star system named after the titular character of the Seafort Saga.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Seafort Saga follows the career of Nicholas Seafort, eager midshipman starting out from one of his early voyages where a disaster wipes out the top end of the command structure leaving the inexperienced youth in charge. The verse's background includes a strong world government backed by an equally strong church, many of the heroe's issues arise out of his strictly religious upbringing and how this conflict with the realities of life in the Space Navy and indeed the world. Seafort's first voyage also leads to the discovery of Starfish Aliens who apparently don't like us very much.The novels, in order of release: Midshipman's Hope (1994) Challenger's Hope (1995) Prisoner's Hope (1995) Fisherman's Hope (1996) Voices of Hope (1996) Patriarch's Hope (1999) Children of Hope (2001) Galahad's Hope (not yet published)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Boot Camp Episode | |
| Seafort Saga / int_62ef4163 | comment |
Boot Camp Episode — This is basically the premise of Fisherman's Hope. The perspective alternates between Seafort's tenure as Commandant of the U.N.N.S. Academy, and flashbacks to his own time there when he was a cadet. | |

| Seafort Saga / int_abb16044 | comment |
Asskicking Equals Authority — Played with. Among Midshipmen, any of the junior Midshipmen may challenge the "Senior Middy" in a fight to attempt to take over the Wardroom. Consequently, a Midshipman who is unable to hold his or her Wardroom is unlikely to ever get promoted to Lieutenant. It's a minor subplot in the first book, and mentioned occasionally in following books. | |

The Captain | |
| Seafort Saga / int_d99d9918 | comment |
The Captain — Nicholas Seafort is a very pure example, right up there with Kirk. He has responsibilities that he cannot shirk, including sacrificing his subordinates when the situation demands it. | |
