Theo Waitley is a Nexus of Violence. Thrust mid-year into a school for pilots far from the safe haven of her birth home on scholarly Delgado, young Theo Waitley excels in hands-on flying while finding that she's behind the curve in social intricacies as well as in math. Her mentors try to guide her studies and training into the channels best suited to her special abilities and inclinations, including suggesting that she should join in the off-world student association, a plan resulting in mixed success.
After a series of confrontations, fights, and ultimately a riot after which she is thanked for not killing anyone, Theo is named a "nexus of violence" by the school's administration. Facing suspension and carrying little more than a hastily procured guild card, a pistol taken from an attacker, and the contents of her pants pockets, Theo must quickly decide if she's ready to return to Delgado in disgrace, or launch herself into the universe as a freelance pilot with credentials she's already earned.
The sequel to Fledgling, Saltation is the tenth book in the Liaden Universe® series.

Product ReviewI liked this even more than Fledgling, apart from learning a new word it has been a spur to visit so many more of Lee & Millers other work.

Product ReviewI have tremendously enjoyed the Liaden Universe Series and this book is a new start to hopefully many years more pleasurable reading. Sharon Lee and Steve Miller have again brought forth a gem that complements and enhances the previous books in the series.
Thank you for the satisfying story and the pleasant (impatient) anticipation for the sequel.Posted on
