Rating: 5 out of 5

I picked up the original April book a bit more than a year ago and sadly didn't review it then. However it grabbed my attention and I have read all 3 of the sequels since then, buying them the day they come out and finishing them sometime way late in the evening when I really should have been asleep.I love the civilization building where you have this high tech community in space that is gradually getting to be independent of earth. Forced to declare independence or be shipped back down to an earth run wild with a future version of some of the worst governmental behaviors we are seeing today. I also love the libertarian/independent backdrop to this burgeoning society.I also have loved April and her friends as the main characters of these books. Larger than life teen characters that have a drive to do more with their lives than lay around and play games.I couldn't more highly recommend the four so far written books in the April series. Actually I have read all the other books that Mr. Mackey Chandler has written and enjoyed them equally as well. So I can recommend him as an author in general as well as his books. I just wish I had found his books even sooner.
