Author Alain Brousseau does two things exceptionally well in The Jazan Conspiracy. First, Brousseau creates a vivid, fully realized world with no wasted words, and second, the story continues to move throughout with intriguing twists. The tight writing and compelling plot keep the reader engaged throughout.
In The Jazan Conspiracy, Alain Brousseau has crafted an action-packed sequel, filled with young-adult angst and questions of identity, which gleefully evokes settings like Star Trek: Starfleet Academy and Honor Harrington. While the diverse ensemble of characters navigates the difficulties of school life and cramped quarters, they’re never left to forget the huge threat looming at the far end of the galaxy, or those who want to sabotage both the ship they’re on, and the relationships they’re developing.
