Earth Star

Earth Star by Janet Edwards, 287 pages

In this sequel to Earth Girl, Jarra is once again called upon to help save the Earth from possible destruction.  When an alien sphere appears in the sky above Earth, Jarra and her boyfriend, Fian, are drafted into the military so that they can help with the crisis from a historian standpoint.  Jarra's status as Handicapped but from a military family makes her uniquely qualified to assist with what the military has in mind.  The situation is extremely dangerous, as no one knows if the sphere is hostile and it has not responded to any communication efforts.  If a peaceful solution cannot be reached, the governments may decide to take aggressive action, which could easily end up with the destruction of Earth.  I think I liked this book better than the first and can't wait to finish the third book also.  I would definitely recommend this series to teen science fiction fans.
