Derelict (Halcyone Space, #1)
I wasn't sure I was going to like this one. But I really, really did. A lot. And it's book 1. :D THERE ARE MORE!
Totally wonderful story. The different characters contributed to the story constantly moving and pulling me in. I am in awe at how well this story is woven together with so many interesting scenes and such depth of character. It was so enjoyable to read. It would be good to read the other two books before this, but don't miss this one.
It is actually getting easier to review Ms. Cohen's Halcyone Space series. Book #4 is like coming home to your family. Not the family you were born into, the one you've chosen, or who've chosen you. So, just go buy Parallax, settle in and let me know when you're done.
When's the next one, L.J.?!
When's the next one, L.J.?!
Ithaka survived and is still hidden, major catastrophe was averted and scores of readers sighed sadly that the story was done. Not to worry! Even though everything *seemed* calm after Ithaka Rising, LJ Cohen's second book in her Halcyon series, nothing really was. The next book in the series, Dreadnought and Shuttle, has even more death-defying actions by the plucky crew we first met in Derelict. Micah is off at University, getting used to not being in the shadow of his father, Jem is getting used to the upgrade to his brain, and Ro is getting used to not having to worry about her father.
Well, not quite. Micah runs into a few snags at school, not the least of which is his new roommate. Jem's brain is still fighting him. Oh, and Ro's father is still around and still causing trouble (of course he is!). When he tries to wreak absolute havoc, the crew has to solve things once again, while still trying to stay out of trouble with the authorities. They are helped, in strange ways,by a new potential member of the crew and strong candidate for a love interest, one that looks to be able to give everyone else a run for their money and capable of dealing out what-for on several levels.
The only thing I did not like about this book was turning the last page. When's the next one, Ms. Cohen?!… (meer)
