Bounders series.
On a mission to their allies the Alkalinians' planet, Jasper's misgivings about Earth Force's competency come to a head when he uncovers that the "Alks" might in fact be a danger to all Bounders, including his sister. It feels like little happens until the cliffhanger ending, but the mystery, suspense, and sense of danger will keep series fans going through this third installment.

Bounders series.
As Jasper and friends continue their Bounder training by competing in a pod race, they begin to suspect that the war with the alien Youli isn't what it seems, and that the adults are hiding vital information. Decisions get harder as they realize that their actions have large-scale consequences. Some plot points strain credibility, but fans of Bounders will be pulled into the mystery.
