Teen stowaway. Ship battles. Treachery.

Carnival musician Kip Rees gets mixed up in a caper over his head...A mysterious figure has offered him riches to deliver a package to a faraway world.

Yet powerful people would as soon see Kip and his new friends dead than fulfill his mission. Can he stay alive long enough to unlock the mystery of why he was chosen as delivery boy?

From the grimy holds of space freighters to the majestic Temple of the Moon, Kip goes from young dreamer to hardened defender. Never would he have imagined he'd be staring down the barrels of mutant raiders' guns...

An epic ride through far future worlds...

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Read
Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2023

Fun Sci-fi adventure with plenty of action sequences. Interesting concept or plot. Loved the mystery surrounding the object Kip obtained to transport. Apparently written to introduce us to the main character, as seen in future episodes of this series and give us some background material.

It was a pleasure to read due to exceptional editing!

The only drawbacks to the story, in my opinion, was that I thought the author could have done so... much more with the priceless artifact. I also didn’t care for the one-sided love relationship that Kip benefitted from, but that helped establish the character’s carefree traits as observed in the author’s next book ‘Thetis 3'.

All in all, it’s worth a few hours of your time and the price is great! I certainly enjoyed it.

"Star Runaway: Rebel Rising (Starship Rogue Book 1)" ventures into the vast expanse of space with a rebellious spirit, offering a mix of adventure and intrigue. While the novel has its merits, certain aspects lead to my three-star rating.

The strong suit of this book lies in its adventurous spirit. The narrative takes readers on a journey through the cosmos, with space battles, rebellions, and a dash of political intrigue. The world-building, particularly in the context of the starships and the rebel faction, adds depth to the sci-fi setting.

The protagonist, in her quest for rebellion and self-discovery, brings a dynamic element to the story. Her determination and resilience are commendable, making her journey relatable to readers who enjoy strong-willed characters navigating challenges.

However, the pacing of the narrative is somewhat inconsistent. While some sections propel the story forward with urgency, others lag, creating moments where the momentum wanes. A more balanced pacing could have sustained the tension and engagement throughout the book.

The supporting characters, while playing pivotal roles, could benefit from more development. Deeper insights into their backgrounds and motivations would have enriched the overall narrative, fostering stronger connections between the reader and the ensemble cast.

The dialogue, at times, feels formulaic and lacks the nuance that could elevate character interactions. A more nuanced approach to language and communication among the characters would contribute to a more immersive reading experience.

In conclusion, "Star Runaway: Rebel Rising" is a promising debut in the Starship Rogue series, offering an adventurous space opera with rebellious undertones. While the protagonist and the sci-fi elements shine, improvements in pacing and character development could enhance the overall reading experience. It's a recommended read for those who enjoy space adventures and rebellious protagonists, but be prepared for a journey that has moments of brilliance amid areas where the narrative could soar even higher.

Allow a full day for this action-packed PG15 space opera about the early adventures of 18-year-old Kip Rees, stuck in Hoag Spaceport on Belruus until - but that would be a spoiler so you'll have to read it yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars The start of a grisly sci fi tale

Kip Rees is not a bad guy. Sure in the dark of space a lot of stuff happens but many do what they need to just to survive amongst the gangs and crazy powers out there.
He's drawn into a deal and then things go crazy and he ends up in a Skurg compound which he'll be lucky to survive with all his limbs.
Good story if a bit on the dark side

Nonstop action start to finish, with cannibalistic alien slavers and an artefact that everyone will kill to possess. Imaginative storylines well-written characters and a plot that grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go. A definite must-read start to what promises to be an amazing series, don't miss this one, Baz.
