I Want to Read It (73): The Rise of Earth

I Want to Read It, a hybrid between WLW (or WOW) and what's on my to-be-read pile. Well, instead of focusing just on books I would like to acquire, I will be using it to feature books that I just want to read. From the ones, I want to buy to the one's sitting on my TBR at home.

The Rise of Earth (Jupiter Pirates, 3) by Jason Fry, June 14, 2016. Published by HarperCollins. 

For Tycho Hashoone and his family, space privateering is more than a business—it’s a way of life. Now that the Jovian Union needs their help more than ever, their way of life is about to get a lot more complicated.

Earth is preparing to mount an arms race, and it seems they’ve started recruiting privateers of their own. Meanwhile, the Ice Wolves of Saturn are still on the offensive, and their ruthless tactics make them look like the pirates of old. Trapped between two formidable foes, the Jovian Union has asked for all hands on deck—and that includes the Hashoones and their ship, the Shadow Comet. The stage has been set for a showdown on the Cybele asteroids, a place where neutrality is for sale and friends always go to the highest bidder.

With so many players vying for power, Tycho will have to decide once and for all where his allegiances lie. Because the day when his mother will step down as ship captain is approaching fast—and the fate of much more than the Shadow Comet hangs in the balance.

Why

What can I say, I really do want to see how things will play out in the final installment of the Jupiter Pirates. There are a couple things I am really hoping will happen in Rise of Earth. One of those being the naming of a new captain (though I have a good idea who it'll be; the same person I've been thinking of since book one to be exact). Plot theories aside, I just hope that the author is able to conclude the series in a satisfying way. One that will leave no questions unanswered, or at least clear up the bigger plot questions that were left over from the last book.

Regardless, I am definitely looking forward to (one day) getting my hands on a copy so I can see how it'll end.
