Spark (Sky Chasers #2)
Let me begin by saying that I read GLOW, book 1 of this series, last summer and I enjoyed reading it very much. I was concerned that I wouldn't remember what happened in GLOW, but the book jacket in Spark gives a really good summary and when I began "Escape" (the first chapter in section one of the book), it was like I had just finished reading the first book. It put me right back where I was when I finished GLOW.The female character Waverly was unable to (view spoiler)[save her parents from the
I can not tell you how EXCITED I was to read Spark. My good buddy Rob and Macmillan can attest, I was emailing him weekly to see if the epub version was ready yet. I was so happy that the day I received it was the same day I was finishing another book (I'm not sure if I could have waited.)I loved Spark, not quite as much as I loved Glow (I was unable to put Glow down) but it was still really good. It seemed to me to be a bit of a transition novel. I can't wait to see what happens in book 3. If
Actual rating - 4.5Really really enjoyed this! Withholding my half a star just because full 5 stars are for books of HP and HG proportion. But this is a very well-done series IMO, and it really makes you think. Recommend to sci-fi peeps that enjoy very character-driven space stories.
I read Glow when I received it for review last year, and I adored it. I remember being slightly put off at the beginning because the characters lived in such a strange society, where teenagers could get married and everyone accepted and even pushed it. Because babies are important on a spaceship, y'all. Anyway, this review will contain spoilers for Glow, because Spark is a sequel and I can't contain myself. In any case, go and read Glow if you think it sounds like your sort of thing. Like I

Representaion Toward Books Spark (Sky Chasers #2)
Waverly and Kieran are finally reunited on the Empyrean. Kieran has led the boys safely up to this point, and now that the girls are back, their mission seems slightly less impossible: to chase down the New Horizon, and save their parents from the enemy ship. But nothing is truly as it seems…Kieran’s leadership methods have raised Seth’s hackles— and Waverly’s suspicions. Is this really her fiancĂ©? The handsome, loving boy she was torn from just a short time before? More and more, she finds her thoughts aligned with Seth’s. But if Seth is Kieran’s Enemy No. 1, what does that make her? In one night, a strange explosion rocks the Empyrean—shooting them off course and delaying their pursuit of the New Horizon—and Seth is mysteriously released from the brig. Seth is the most obvious suspect for the explosion, and Waverly the most obvious suspect for releasing him. As the tension reaches a boiling point, will Seth be able to find the true culprit before Kieran locks them both away—or worse? Will Waverly follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? With the balance of power precarious and the clock ticking, every decision counts… every step brings them closer to a new beginning, or a sudden end...Present Books As Spark (Sky Chasers #2)

Originally reviewed at www.devastatingreads.blogspot.comI really enjoyed Glow, the first book in this great sci fi series. It's hard for me to get my sci fi these days, so this series is one I'm really excited about. So I finally got my hands on Spark and was super happy to continue the story. I wasn't expecting some of what happened in this book, and once again, Ryan leaves us on a cliffhanger at the end. Normally cliffhangers really upset me. I don't like unresolved stories.
