Starflight

De: Melissa Landers

Narrado por: Amanda Dolan

Solara Brooks needs a fresh start, someplace where nobody cares about the engine grease beneath her fingernails or the felony tattoos across her knuckles. The outer realm may be lawless, but it's not like the law has ever been on her side. Still, off-world travel doesn't come cheap; Solara is left with no choice but to indenture herself in exchange for passage to the outer realm. She just wishes it could have been to anyone besides Doran Spaulding, the rich, pretty-boy quarterback who made her life miserable in school.

The tables suddenly turn, though, when Doran is framed for conspiracy on Earth, and Solara cons him into playing the role of her servant onboard the Banshee, a ship manned by an eccentric crew with their own secrets. It's been a long time since Solara has believed in anyone, and Doran is the last person she expected to trust. But when the Banshee's dangerous enemies catch up with them, Solara and Doran must come together to protect the ship that has become their home and the crew that feels like family.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A great choice for fans of raw sci-fi action...." ( School Library Journal)

Enjoyed characters

I really like the story, but dissapointed in the ending. I'm hoping there might be a second book because I enjoyed the character so much I want more.

Better than expected

I'm pretty new to audio books, and this was my second attempt at having a book read to me. I was skeptical as the first book I tried had an awful narrator who over exaggerated male voices to the point of distraction. This time I was pleasantly surprised, and have officially become hooked :)
Wonderful story that doesn't go at all where you think it will in the beginning. Enjoyable characters that come into their own are made even more enjoyable by the author not throwing in useless drama (like love triangles- ick). Fun to listen to and by the almost end I was emotionally attached enough to cry at a very sad part of the book.
Worth the read- or listen.

Enjoyable YA Sci-Fi

What made the experience of listening to Starflight the most enjoyable?

It harkens back to sci fi like Firefly or Star Wars. A rag tag band of outlaws that see their share of adventure, with the usual YA love story woven in. The story isn't as good as Firefly or Star Wars, but it's enjoyable for what it is, and I would recommend it to anyone into this kind of story.

not bad, but not great

If you're looking for a straightforward read that's ok, but not great then this is the book for you.

There's nothing special here, but it's a nice story with some romance and action.

I felt like some of the twists were forced and poorly set up, but it was ok.

very romantic

I found it a little predictable at times but overall it had a good love story (if a bit cliche) and some exciting adventures along the way there were incredibly emotional scenes that nearly brought me to tears and the characters were all unique and intriguing made for a fun adventurous journey. I'd recommend
