The enemy wanted him. The galaxy needed him.
Sixty years ago Nolvarics nearly conquered the solar system. They were defeated by starfighters.
Konran dreamed of becoming a starfighter, but he blew his one shot five years ago. Now his life is stuck in neutral as a glorified rock hauler.
He didn’t expect to find Nolvarics lurking within the solar system. They didn’t expect him to survive the confrontation.
Now all eyes are on Konran as he is plunged into a whirlwind of space battles, peril, and conspiracy. The Nolvarics will stop at nothing to catch him, dead or alive.
Can Konran rise up and claim his destiny, or will the galaxy fall?
My Review:
Konran has always wanted to be a starfighter ever since he was a little kid playing video games fighting in space. He had a shot at being a fighter but he blew his chance a few years ago. Now he spends his days hauling rocks. One day while hauling rock Konran and his team are about to quit for the day when Konran notices something is off when he spots a Nolvarics ship out in space.
A battle erupts when the Nolvarics attack Konran and his fellow employees. They didn’t think they would make it out alive but they did and now the Nolvarics are hot on his tail they want him dead or alive, anyway, they can get him. As all eyes turn to Konran he gets his chance to be a starfighter. He was meant to be a starfighter.
Starfighter never once lacked for action as it never let up from the first page until the last with Konran flying through space in battle after battle with the Nolvarics. I could see it all playing out in my head as each fighter ship was given permission to leave the bay and as they shoot out into space surrounded by the stars. I could almost hear each and every shot that was fired.
As I was reading Starfighter Rising I kept thinking about Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica. When Konran and his team left the bay area I kept thinking about Captain Lee "Apollo” Adama and Captain Kara “Starbuck” Thrace on Battlestar Galactic when they would also, leave the ship in their fighter planes to fight the Cylons.
I loved this world in Starfighter Rising and can’t wait to read more of this world in the next book in the Starfighter Rising series. I would recommend Starfighter Rising to anyone who is into stories like Star Trek or Battlestar Galactic. One-click your copy today to begin an awesome adventure in outer space!
