Cadets, by Edward Miller
"With clever ideas and agile prose, Miller builds a world reminiscent of Star Trek: Ryan is a rebellious young Captain Kirk who knows that "sometimes going by the book [isn't] the best course to take." Amid the pop-culture references to Star Wars and comic books, Miller's believable, motivated characters shine, as Ryan's brashness conflicts with Amanda's search for peaceful solutions. A tightly written, fast-paced prose supernova." -- Kirkus Reviews
On a remote training planet, hotshot Earth Defense Fleet Cadet Ryan Thompson and his peace loving ex-girlfriend Amanda Williamson can't agree on anything. But when news comes of an alien invasion of Earth--the first in human history--they are thrown together on a deadly, unauthorized mission to face an unknown enemy. What they find is beyond their wildest expectations. A discovery that changes everything they thought they knew...about their hostile adversaries--and mankind.
With a trail of riddles and mysteries, epic space battles and journeys to the far corners of Earth, this "Star Trek meets Indiana Jones" Sci-Fi Adventure from Author Edward Miller should appeal to fans of Sci-Fi Space Operas and Young Adult Science Fiction. Edward Miller's debut novel with co-author J.B. Manas, The Kronos Interference, was named to Kirkus reviews best of 2012 and received a Starred Review from Kirkus, which called it "Impressively original" and a "Tour De Force."
