"...whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."Yeah, mostly.  But, in this book, a few of Earth's young chickens have an (unwelcome) opportunity to flee the nest and experience, first hand, life on a colony world. The fledglings find themselves astonishingly unprepared; some few rise to the occasion, and exceed their own expectations. Others?  Not so much.While this book is, on the surface, a coming of age story and extols the virtues of pluck and grit, it will never be selected as required reading in today's classrooms.  Why not?  Well -- you'll see.If you've not read another book in this series, read this one!  You won't regret it.G.
