***SPOILER ALERT***Enjoyable second book, with an interesting interplay between Jamie and Lorca in winning Wishaway's heart.

Lorca has an immaturity that causes trouble, but in the end, he valiantly sacrificed himself to save Wishaway.

Even though Ksar is the enemy, the way the story focusses on him at times makes it easier to understand his view and his interest in saving his country. I even find him somewhat likeable in his devotion to try to save his world, and his refusal to give up the fight.

Both Ramsay and his brother, Brian, are very intelligent, and make it more believable that the group can figure out how to get back and forth between earth and Altair.

I like that Wishaway and Jamie don't betray Lorca's trust, even though they must leave him behind at the end when trying to escape on the spaceship.

Hope the last book wraps up the problems of the poor Altarian planet that is destined to have an ice age.
