The Adventures of Kirk Rogers and the Melkotians

The Adventures of Kirk Rogers #2

by C.J. Boyle

Captain Rogers must stop a war and find a sleeping princess before finding any hope of returning home. Several thousand years ago, the Newtonian people had to leave their dying planet in search of a suitable home. Most of the Newtonian people departed in a huge spaceship with wide open terrarium on the inside. They called this ship The Atlantis. Earthlings, however, called it The Moon. Another race of the Newtonians left in a different ship. It was much smaller than the Atlantis but still large enough to carry half a million people. They left on this different ship, not because everyone couldn’t fit in the same ship, but because they believed they were superior to the Newtonians and no longer wanted to associate with them. Those wonderfully misguided people were called Brenians. What do you suppose the chances are that Kirk and his friends would travel through a random wormhole and end up in the same galaxy as the Brenians?Four months into their journey home they crash land on a planet and soon find themselves caught up in a quest to wake a sleeping beauty from stasis in exchange for a replacement part for their ship. During their quest, Kirk is captured by the Brenian people only to escape with the prince’s fiancé.Somehow, someway, our heroes must stop a war before they all end up dead. (PG13)

Fast and fun

This series has developed a vast cast of characters that fit together perfectly to the point that I have got to keep up with their adventures.

C.J. Boyle delivered on the promises made in the first volume of the series. By now, the heroes have become old friends, and new encounters are becoming new friends.
This is real SciFi, where technology evolve in step with the sentient psychology. Like the masters did before, C.J. builds an environment of cultures that bring their own fundamental complexities and raise concerns that are pertinent to our current societal situation. She does so without judgement, without taking a position other than that guided by optimism.
Read this book, you will enjoy the adventure and come out richer than you were when you started.
There are even dragons in there!
Thanks C.J.

Not bad enough for a single ⭐, but not as good as The Adventures of Kirk Rogers: Inside the Moon, and that one only rated ⭐⭐.

Reluctantly moving on to The Adventures of Kirk Rogers and The Illuminati.

C.J. Boyle has again written a fun space adventure filled with drama, comedy, and romance. Kirk Rogers and friends discover a planet and aliens and so much more. Each book in this series draws me in further. The narrator started out well and only gets better and better. Take this spaceship for a ride and prepare to smile!

A great sequel to Inside The Moon, I loved it. Our intrepid heroes are just trying to get home, but that will have to wait. What dark secrets will they uncover? Who will find their soulmate on this adventure? If you liked the first Kirk Rogers, you will love this next chapter.

Overall a decent story with many spelling and grammatical errors throughout the book. It could have used a bit more refinement with errors to the plot line as well. Sadly I think this is where my journey with this four book series ends.

Another good read

I enjoyed this 2nd book as much as the 1st. Interesting characters and a good story. I liked the world building.
Looking forward to the next book.

Kirk and crew find themselves lightyears from home, after going through the wormhole, then in the middle of a war, after crash landing. Fun romp through space, that moves at a nice pace.

Second and still going strong !

I loved the mention of Wednesday from the Adam’s family and pretty much every science fiction story from StarWars to Avatar and of course Star Trek which feels like the author favorite.

I swear, C. J. Boyle is truly amazing with her endless imagination, there is no stopping her with the beautiful plants, amazing beings, actions and unexpected twists.
Just impossible not to fall for her beautiful and amazing stories !!!

And now she even got tears from me, at first tears of sadness, then tears of joy and that from a science fiction comedy but what’s even worse is that there are two more books for this series which needs to be narrated as soon as possible and somehow for the awesome author C. J. Boyle to find me and let me finish reviewing the whole thing.

Russel Fournier has narrated each character perfectly which surly made him the perfect choice for creating this audiobook.

Without a doubt,
recommended by me for all !!!
