I remember reading this thing a time or two in grade school. I have no idea if it was any good. I vaguely remember something about teenagers building a spaceship out of an asteroid, and some squeamish suggested hints of burgeoning sexuality.

Let's be clear: Exiles of Colsec is a long way from being high art.

On the other hand, it IS a genuinely fun YA SF romp. It has a thoroughly detestable bad guy, plenty of gonzo, imaginative world-building, and an unapologetically "from crisis to crisis" pacing. All of this makes for a thoroughly enjoyable bit of light reading.
