Glint Book One: The Cloud Raiders by Samuel Sattin

4.0

Mora is a little planet struggling to stay alive. On Mora, there are warriors and there are workers. The warriors protect Mora from Feeders and other vectors of attack, while workers mine for glint to keep their planet alive. One worker, tiny Loon Ozoa, wishes desperately to be a warrior - and his friend Val Mol, second in command of the Rightful Blade, promises to make that happen, much to the dismay of Loon's tough-as-nails grandmother. Soon, Loon and Val are called into battle - but it looks like the leaders of the planet are keeping some very dark secrets.

A really compelling adventure story with a maddening cliffhanger of an ending - it's going to have readers desperate to find out what comes next.
