In that moment between heartbeats, I somehow stopped being, yet didn’t stop experiencing. A field of white appeared around me —a billion stars. Like eyes opening at once. shining upon me. Ancient things stirred. And in that moment between heartbeats, they not only saw me, but they knew me. -Spensa Spin Nightshade
For as long as she could remember, Spensa was determined to be a pilot for the DDF, flying among the stars. The DDF pilots are the only line of defense for this future society, that has been forced to the underground caverns for protection from the constant attacks from the Krell alien society. Spensa’s DDF Pilot father, labeled a coward and traitor and shot down by his own wingmate, has made Spensa’s dreams difficult while trying to come out from behind the shadow of being a coward’s daughter. Spensa’s story, determination, and strength of character make it easy to follow her on her journey of personal growth. Starship battles, enemies, aliens, political secrets, and unlikely friendships will draw you in and pull you through until the last page. You won’t be disappointed!
Set your sights on something higher, my father had said, Something more grand…Claim the Stars
