"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."
Wow. I just read this book and it was amazing. I really loved how Lucas came from nowhere and got somewhere. I also liked how the book focused on a smaller group of three main characters and included other important but not as important people in the story. Another great thing about this book is that 98% of important characters developed and grew as a person throughout the story. In my opinion even though Lucas comes from nowhere he is given enough tools and abilities to succeed without it being too easy or too hard. I think that the book was very well written, and I would give it a 5 out of 5.

I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for my honest review.
