A rebellion in space pits one boy’s past against his future in this gripping adventure from the critically acclaimed author of In the Red! This out-of-this-world story about fighting for what’s right, chasing your dreams, and believing in yourself is perfect for fans of Kevin Emerson, Yoon Ha Lee, and D. J. MacHale.
Lucas Adebayo grew up on a small mining ship in the asteroid belt, but wants to join the Navy and become the best pilot in the galaxy. The Navy has never accepted a Belter cadet before, but Lucas’s skills secure him a place on the training ship, the Orpheus.
Life in the Navy couldn’t be more different than life in the Belt, and Lucas struggles to find his place. As a Belter, he’s an outsider among his peers; as a Navy cadet, he doesn’t quite fit in at home anymore, either. Lucas is caught between the worlds of his past and his future when a Belter rebellion puts everyone’s lives at risk. Only he can lead the way to peace.

Pinki hails from a long line of rakkhosh resisters, demons who have spent years building interspecies relationships, working
together to achieve their goal of overthrowing the snakey oppressors and taking back their rights. But she has more important
things to worry about, like maintaining her status as fiercest rakkhosh in her class and looking after her little cousins. There is also
the teeny tiny detail of not yet being able to control her fire breathing and accidentally burning up school property.
Then Sesha, the charming son of the Serpentine Governor, calls on Pinki for help in defeating the resistance, promising to give
her what she most desires in return -- the ability to control her fire. First she'll have to protect the Moon Maiden, pretend to be a
human (ick), and survive a family reunion. But it's all worth it for the control of her powers . . . right?
