Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray

4.0

---

4.5 Stars, a Great sci-fi gem!! Follow a pilot/soldier and a freakin' miraculous android odd-couple as they race around the galaxy in an effort to save the other habitable worlds from the evil Earthlings (hell bent on ruining their planets too!) There's a lot going on here, and it's really well done and a total page turner as you race through the different worlds of "the Loop". The last 1/4 of the book keeps you on the edge of your seat, and I found the ending satisfying as heck! Plus it's open to continue on, but not in a shitty cliff-hanger way that is hateful and all the rage with authors who just want to sell series sets.
Fans of Star Wars, Firefly, Saga, Descender and other quality space opera will enjoy this one.
