The Orpheus Plot

A rebellion in space pits one boy’s past against his
future in this gripping adventure from the critically acclaimed author of In
the Red! This out-of-this-world story about fighting for what’s right,
chasing your dreams, and believing in yourself is perfect for fans of Kevin
Emerson, Yoon Ha Lee, and D. J. MacHale.

Lucas Adebayo grew up on a small mining ship in the asteroid
belt, but wants to join the Navy and become the best pilot in the galaxy. The
Navy has never accepted a Belter cadet before, but Lucas’s skills secure him a
place on the training ship, the Orpheus.

Life in the Navy couldn’t be more different than life in the
Belt, and Lucas struggles to find his place. As a Belter, he’s an outsider
among his peers; as a Navy cadet, he doesn’t quite fit in at home anymore,
either. Lucas is caught between the worlds of his past and his future when a
Belter rebellion puts everyone’s lives at risk. Only he can lead the way to
peace.
