Prove Earth's worth, despite 'ape' status

Earth Star is a great read for YA sci-fi fans who enjoy stories about underdogs fighting for recognition and respect. The book's protagonist, Jarra, is a relatable character who faces discrimination due to her genetic condition but uses her bravery and scientific knowledge to prove that Earth is worth fighting for. The novel's unique premise of Earth being considered an inferior planet in the universe adds an interesting layer to the story and keeps readers engaged.

Description

Sequel to Earth Girl.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?
