Kirsten is just like any other 16 year old cadet at the Space Academy, except that she's an empath, and is bonded for life to an extra-terrestrial life form called a skeecat. School is tough enough, but when Kirsten's roommate and dorm mother disappear, Kirsten wants to know why, and she searches two solar systems to find some answers. First novel in a series written for young adult science fiction fans.

A great book for teens!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Space Academy: Volume One of the Kirsten Chronicles (Paperback)
Thoroughly enjoyed the book as did friends I loaned it to. Kirsten should give Harry Potter some real competition. Recommend the book to anyone wanting a good science fiction/mystery. It may be written for teens, but even adults can enjoy it. The authors don't "write down", which is a definite plus in my eyes.

This review is from: Space Academy: Volume One of the Kirsten Chronicles (Paperback)
Space Academy moves at a fast pace and keeps the reader engaged throughout the entire story. This book is well written and full of realistic dialogue. Although targeted for the juvenile market, the book is enjoyable for all ages.
