This starts with the castaways on Europa, and ends the entire arc pretty well - though their discovery under the ice is kind of skimmed over, to me. Not entirely - it's clearly plenty exciting - but because the discovery happens within a disaster, and they can't stick around to explore further, it doesn't have the kind of impact that Phobos or even Ceres base did. They're more focused on getting home, and dealing with those who caused the disaster. But again exciting events (and Joe gets damaged), great new characters and new depths in old one - great space opera, worth reading and rereading. I almost gave this 3 stars, because it's been a little while since I read it and I've almost completely forgotten it. (It's only been months, not years - so that seems like a bad sign.) However, I remember reading feverishly and enjoying it a lot. And the excitement of communicating with the Europans...that was pretty cool. I don't think I've read previous book, so maybe if I read that, and reread this one, I'll have a better idea. Now that I think about it, there were similarities to The Martian, too - not quite so much engineering, but also pretty neat. Perils of Pauline/Maddie go interplanetary. Many trials and crisis resolved by 8 genius level spacepersons ably abetted by seriously creative future technology and a rather unique new race of sentients. Briskly told in a relatively short novel that will work for those interested in speculative technology used in unique ways. Zeige 5 von 5 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"Madeline Fathom had miraculously landed the crippled Nebula Storm on Europa. She joined on that frozen moon of Jupiter the stranded crewmembers of the ill-fated EU vessel Odin. The Nebula Storm's reactor was ruined in the landing, the Odin's shuttle can't make the trip back home, and the only vessel that could have make the journey to save them has just been destroyed by a renegade crewman, bad luck, and the remorseless forces of nature. But Madeline, Helen Sutter, A.J. Baker and the team have one card left to play. All they have to do... is survive lethal radiation, vacuum, and ice as hard as steel while they figure out how to make Nebula Storm fly again. But even as they prepare to make the journey home, Europa has one more discovery waiting for them... a discovery that might be the deadliest trap in the Solar System!"--Jacket.

In the previous book we left our heroes stranded on Europa after a sociopath of a security officer on the EU vessel decided to blow everyone up, with some success.
This is not a good book. If you absolutely loved the previous book, you may like this one as well, but not because the book is good but because you are a good fit to the story. If you are not a good fit, then you are left with a book that is not very good.
The story is predicable (if you've read enough similar books) and the characters implausible. Yes, they are still super humans looking like super models, with super skills. Something like in the Starship Troopers movie, I would guess.
