Engaging, well-crafted prose draws readers into the exciting world of Yah and the Space Cadets. Like the first in series, this title provides good reading that can be shared among family members of quite different ages due to the interest of the storyline and the quality of Jake Taylor's writing. The narrative captures one's imagination, and appeals to the spirit of adventure. Descriptive passages also help to create a sense of 'being there'. The story moves along well throughout. I recommend this title for younger readers, and those adults who enjoy cleanly-written science fiction. Tasteful illustrations enhance this book. 5 stars.
