Earth Orbit

 Earth Orbit: A Space Force Adventure by Merrin Slade

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

My review...

Earth Orbit, Book 2 of a series titled “The Skye Sci-Fi Series" begins with Cerys visiting the family of her commanding officer who is her sweetheart. She’s a Space Force Officer now, but it doesn’t make one bit of difference to Jak’s stuffy prejudiced father. He’s hateful about imperfect Wild Types like Cerys who grew up in The Refuge, and he’s convinced her “kind” is beneath Jak. But after fighting her way through the Academy and being a hero in the Space Force wars, Cerys sure isn’t going to let an old biased buffoon shake her. Or at least she’s going to try and keep her chin up.

Merrin Slade seems to put you right in the future, but her futuresque gadgets and characters, all with unusual names, are clearly pronounceable in your mind making one’s reading smooth. 

Ghosting Academy

 It’s been years since Amelie abandoned her home to become an elite agent of the Academy.

In its embrace she has found support and stability, but in return the Academy uses her gifts for destruction and control. For ten years, she has chosen to live only for the moment, neither questioning nor considering the motives of her employer. But when Amelie and her pod of fellow agents, “graduate” into becoming strategic operatives, they are spirited off to an isolated island. Here they uncover a labyrinth of deception and lies far more sinister than any they ever imagined, including Verite, a new virtual reality game, in which time has no meaning and your blood holds the keys to your soul. In the Ghosting Academy, consciousness is currency, morality is shackles and there is no death.
