In the series' fourth installment, the teenage crew of the Galahad faces new obstacles on its journey to establish the last human colony. Parasitic aliens attach themselves to the ship, a death is predicted, and emotional conflicts threaten to divide the crew. Though its plotting can be inconsistent and the interpersonal dynamics lean toward melodrama, this space adventure will appeal to younger teen fantasy fans.
