review 1: I WON A BOOK!:DAfter reading:I just couldn't get into this, so I'm only writing a little mini review for it. I think the problem is that a) I'm getting kind of jaded when it comes to YA and b) I've read too many books about plucky MCs saving THE WORLD. I think a good rule of thumb is, if you liked Katya's World (which I read but was not too fond of) or Black Hole Sun (which was awesome, but annoyed me), then you will probably like this book too.DNF.1 star.
review 2: This book is a quite okay, light, short story. Unfortunately that’s with emphasis on short. It’s only about 150 pages. It seems like the author wanted to get it rushed out the door to make some money before he completed the story because it kind of stops in the middle like an episode in a TV-sho
... morew which is a bit of a shame. It would have been much more enjoyable if he would have spent the time to continue it to a more logical finish.It’s a simple enough plot and it’s not very elaborately told which was what I was feeling like reading for when I picked it. Spaceships pounding each other is right up my alley. It’s perhaps a bit different from other, similar, novels in that the humans are still confined in the solar system and that they are fighting an enemy which control the outer planets. No one knows if they originated there or, if not, when they came and from where.Unfortunately the kindle formatting is a bit annoying with huge spaces between very short paragraphs. I really hate it when they do that. less

I found this book un necessarily stuffy and boring. The characters cardboard.
