The Brightest Light edition by Scott J Robinson Literature Fiction eBooks

Kade Traskell, who lives on the Skyland of Girinbult, was once a member of the Skyway Men, but he’s been exiled to the metal working community for a decade. Finally, he’s been given a job and a chance to redeem himself—or so he thinks. But, as soon as he arrives in the target area things begin to go wrong, and he learns that he’s been set up.
Not only must he worry about being a target of the Skyway Men, but he must also dodge the mysterious Green Sea Raiders.
The Brightest Light by Scott J. Robinson is science fiction adventure at its finest. Non-stop action and double dealing from page one as Kade desperately tries to learn who to trust. Hard-hitting dialogue and bigger than life characters in a fictional universe where no one can be trusted. A page-turner that you’ll not want to miss.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my review.

The Brightest Light edition by Scott J Robinson Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

Brief Summary - Poor Kade. A one-time master-thief, member of the Skyway Men. Until he messed everything up, and got kicked out. Having waited for ten years, he's finally offered the chance to get back in the Skyway Men's good books by running a mission for them. Or so he thinks. The mission is revealed as a set-up, with Kade having to go on the run from the law, the Skyway Men, and all manner of others whilst trying to find the elusive thieves who took the item he was sent to steal, who set him up, and who framed him. Oh, and try to figure out what the hell they took!

This is a fantastic, well-written tale, and I give full credit to Robinson for the incredible world he's created. It puts me in mind of a Studio Ghibli-esque world, filled with floating lands, and an advanced/retro civilisation. Crystals are used for power, and one character stumbles (in a throwaway moment) upon the possibility of developing steam power as well. Robinson has crafted this world easily and credibly, and admirably drops us straight in. Explanations about the floating worlds never feel clumsy or forced, ditto for the Skyway Men and other characters and groups. The development of the characters is smooth, believable, and Kade and his companions feel easily likeable. Action scenes are well handled, and come thick and fast.

It's hard to pick some problems for this. At a stretch, I'd go with that I'm not actually sure what the purpose of tattals and crystal implants are (however, I'm going to come back to this), and that some characters are thrown away far too quickly. But, the book is 198 pages long, and runs at a brisk pace, so what can you expect? Otherwise, this is a fantastic piece.

Coming back to the points I wanted to come back to - this is far too well developed a world to throw away on a mere 198 pages (although this is an ideal length for this book). I would absolutely love to see a series of books in this world, answering more questions - the development of the questions, the Green Sea Raiders, what (may or may not) lurk beneath the floating lands, etc.

Full credit, Scott Robinson, you have produced a great piece of work, and I would recommend it whole-heartedly.

On a side note, however, the after-story note from the author asking for reviews and bashing other authors, and a couple of lines in the About The Author section leave an unpleasant aftertaste. Shame.
