2025 ANDRE NORTON NEBULA AWARD FINALIST
After being instrumental in saving the citizens of Arcadia during the Krackle invasion, identical twins Nika and Rika Ingersoll are offered appointments to the Regency's Uniform Services Academy as midshipmen. Eager to move on into adult life, they are sworn in and board a luxury liner for a relaxing voyage to Freedom Station before facing the rigors of Plebe Indoc.
Only sometimes lightning really does strike twice.
When seemingly pirates take over the ship, and the passengers face an uncertain-but assuredly horrible-fate, it's up to Rika and Nika, along with a handful of their fellow mids and cadets, to somehow figure a way out of their mess.
Against all odds, they managed it before, but is asking them to save the day again too much?
There's no room for failure. They may not be trained yet, but they've already sworn their oaths, and the lives of over 2,000 of their fellow citizens are at stake.
Read Gemini Rising now to see if the twins can somehow pull another rabbit out of their hats and save the day.
