Publisher's summary

When Jelena Marchenko learns that her parents have incurred a huge debt due to her previous actions, she's determined to find a way to pay it off. But running cargo doesn't pay anything off quickly. She comes up with a scheme to turn herself and her eclectic crewmates into mercenaries, at least for long enough to make some money.

Unfortunately, Jelena has no interest in maiming, killing, or otherwise tormenting people, the typical things mercenaries are hired to do. She's relieved when, with Prince Thorian's help, she finds a mission that seems perfectly suited to her team: rescuing prisoners of war.

But what was supposed to be a quick way to earn money soon turns into something devastating and deadly. Caught between two sides in a war fueled by centuries of resentment, Jelena must choose between her needs and the needs of a planet. No matter what choice she makes, she risks her ship and the lives of her team. Does she truly have what it takes to be a mercenary?

Great Fun Story!

Lindsay Buroker does it again with a really fun storyline, great action, and always real challenges for her characters, lending a sense of danger and urgency to everything they do. Nice job!

Angle of Truth (bws)

Enjoyed the book and looking forward to Stolen Legacy. Could have appreciated reaching out to Beck With the Cactus. Would have provided trade opportunity with Chuma (spelling unsure).

EXCELLENT.

A very good continuation to the series. Prince Thorian's and Elena's friendship are growing and I am hoping that this will lead to more than just friends. Eric is also a likeable guy and a good friend in need. Elena has a strong personality and she is a lot like her mother. With a lot more experience and maturity she will be a force to reckon with. She is kind to animals which I like very much and she helps all those in need which is commendable. Thor has a lot on his plate too but he has allies like Elena and her crew to help him. An excellent storyline and a good narrator to make the story come to life. I hope this series will continue to more than 3 books!

I am hooked!

If you could sum up Angle of Truth in three words, what would they be?

Any additional comments?

Okay, you guys, I'm completely hooked. I can stop reading this series. Book 2 is even better than Book 1. Now that I know Jelena, Thor, Erick and the cast of other characters, I just want more of their adventures.

I rarely, if ever, read a second book in a series immediately after the first. And typically when I do so, I tire of the series and put it on a back burner until Book 3 is either released or I get around to reading it. Not the case here. Sky Full of Stars is my new favourite. It has everything I love: adventure, humour, romance, friendship, angst, strong characters and, can it get better than this, it takes place in SPACE!!! Yes, it is the complete package, people.

And to up date any of you wondering where my loyalties lie on the romance front after Book 2. Well, Thor is actually starting to grow on me. He still has his dark side but he is also incredibly protective of Jelena. And her parents aren't in favour of her having a relationship with him (not that she HAS a relationship with him ... yet). Erick is more in the friend zone now. We'll have to keep an eye on this fun side story as Jelena and her crew head off on their next adventure!

I would write more ... but I've gotta go read Book 3!

Starseer powers save the day

I love this new vibrant generation after Alyssa and Leonidas. Buroker's humour is unflailing in her characters. I enjoyed this very much and am highly anticipating book three

More please!

Angle of Truth is another great adventure from Lindsay Buroker which is packed full of adventure, and humor. The characters are well developed and intersting. Emily Woo Zellers narration is excellent and I thoroughly enjoy listening to her. I highly recommend this book and look forward to the rest of the series!

Space Adventures never disappoint

Thank you for this continuation of the 'Sky Full of Stars' series. Lindsay writes a great space opera! Can't wait to see what adventures the rest of the series brings.

we need more of these type and quality of stories

The story and character development are excellent. It is well worth listening to and experiencing.

Just as enchanting as Fallen Empire

Loving this series about Jelena just as much as Fallen Empire. Action, adventure, and humor with heart. Can’t wait for the next installment! Emily Woo Zeller’s performance is lovely and brings the characters to life!

Great Story

I enjoyed the story. I had really grown accustomed to all of the characters so some of the voices threw me off.
