Earth Star by
Janet Edwards is out on 15 August (Harper Voyager £7.99):
“18-year-old Jarra has a lot to prove. After being awarded
one of the military’s highest honours for her role in a daring rescue attempt,
Jarra finds herself – and her Ape status – in the spotlight. Jarra is one of
the unlucky few born with an immune system that cannot survive on other
planets. Derided as an ‘ape’ – a ‘throwback’ – by the rest of the universe,
Jarra is on a mission to prove that Earth Girls are just as good as anyone
else.
Except now the planet she loves is under threat by what
could be humanity’s first ever alien contact. Jarra’s bravery – and specialist
knowledge – will once again be at the centre of the maelstrom, but will the
rest of the universe consider Earth worth fighting for?”
