Wow with this re-read, I still rated this 5 stars. It is my favorite series, but let me sell you on why you should be reading this series. Note: This is the 2nd book in a series, there may be spoilers, be aware!

Description: Welcome to Cloral! The territory where everyone lives on floating habitats because there is no land. Bobby and Press follow the evil Saint Dane to this magnificent territory. However, it's not clear how Saint Dane will stir up trouble in Cloral right away. Good thing Bobby and Press get a break right? WRONG. They must work with Spader, a young man on Cloral who is going to be a Traveler but has no idea what that means. When everything comes to a head, can Bobby get Spader on his side and work together to defeat Saint Dane?

ALL the goods:
- Mark and Courtney (the folks Bobby writes his letters to) are getting a more advanced storyline that keeps you wanting more.
- Bobby's personal progression in this book and his path of stepping into his Traveller role is exciting to read.
- The action scenes in this book are descriptive and I can see them in my head.
- Cloral is one of my favorite territories. It's described beautifully with unique technology that makes me want to go there today.
- This book gets emotional but in a way that makes sense and opens more doors than it closes.

Overall: PLEASE REASE THIS SERIES IF YOU EVEN HALF LIKE FANTASY AND SCI-FI, this series will take you on a journey.
