Otters In Space 2 Jupiter Deadly eBook Mary E Lowd Reviews
I was disappointed in this sequel because every time there was a chance for the book to have an amazing moment, that I as a fan could gush about with other fans, the author refused to show that scene, instead, cutting away to follow another character. The most painful of these is that the big mystery of what is going on around Jupiter is revealed to the reader as a summary told during video-mail.
I felt like the author wrote maybe three good scenes in this book then padded the rest of the book with filler, and that really upsets me, because this book makes more questions and gives no answers, not even trivial factoids like the rules of Scramball or specific passages from the First-Race doctrine.
I was left feeling like the author didn't want to write this book, so as much as I enjoyed the first, I cannot recommend this book to anybody.
After being surprised by my enjoyment of the first Otters in Space, it came as no surprise that its sequel had everything I loved about the first installment and more. The plot picks up where it left off with our feline heroine Kipper on a ship with its crazy otter crew and our canine heroine back on earth dealing with the nitty-gritty of post-human politics and cat/dog relations.
All the humor and commentary from the first book cross over quite well, but the biggest addition (beyond the deepening of characters and a broadening of plot) is a mystery on Jupiter where there have been attacks on before unknown cat colonies on the gas giant's moons. The answer to the mystery had me jumping out of my seat and squealing with childlike joy. Otters in Space 2 Jupiter Deadly is another great installment in a powerful series that goes beyond its surface of anthropomorphic, talking animals and dives into the deeper politics of our time and our mutual hope and fear of what awaits us beyond the bounds of Earth.
In an upifted universe, where the humans sneaked away when no one was looking, Earth is largely cats and dogs. The dogs rule, at least in North America, and otters rule in space. In the first book, Kipper is hunting a mystery that takes her into space and eventually Mars where the perfect cat world is found. Provided, of course, that you were a perfectly bred cat.
In Otters In Space Jupiter Deadly, Kipper encounters aliens or possibly uplifted reptiles who seem bent on attacking Jupiter and friendly otter spacecraft. Before she can finish saying, "It's not my problem," a distress call goes out ... from another rather defenseless feline utopia.
This book is less subversive, the action is more in your face and Skipper's otter crew-mates are as loony as ever. The sequel is wonderful! And all the characters get fleshed out much better in this book. The political intrigue is explained and the dog culture is better explored. I like that in confronting the system, the average dogs that make up that system are better explored, rather than making the system outright evil or two dimensional.
Spoilers below!
Trudith is a dream in her "good dog" mode. Petra and Alistair are expanded quite nicely and revealed as real people, and not the almost flat characters in the first otter book (to be fair, they weren't in Cat Havana much, just enough to spur Kipper on).
Emily the octopus has a greatly expanded role as do octopi in general. She comes across as just alien enough. She can emote and the writer has mastered making sentient octopi that aren't silly furs with eight arms. All the hard science in here just sneaks up on you, and I'm including biology in that.
When Kipper was introduced to OXE-Aqua, the breathable atmosphere of the Jolly Barracuda, I was not only amused but impressed by the writing of that scene. I was disappointed we just got a less than detailed version of that event with the rescued Persians.
And the election for president seemed too soon. That could have been held off for Otters In Space 3.
Because there will be an Otters in Space 3. Huzzah!
See, I told you there would be spoilers.
A thoroughly delightful and fun read.
A fun furry space opera continuing the story and expanding the world of Kipper the intrepid but introspective tabby. I've been looking forward to it for a while and hope Mary makes it a trilogy.
Mary's Otters in Space universe is absolutely adorable. I bought #1 at a convention and had it sitting on my bookshelf for a while, and when I actually got around to reading it I couldn't put it down. Upon finishing I immediately (same hour even) bought the second book (kindle edition this time so I didn't have to wait). I cannot wait to read "In a Dog's World" Mary's next book in the same universe.
This being the second of the series was just as exciting and it was nice to see the continued character development. If you enjoy sci-fi , action, or adventure this is a good read for you and I encourage you to read the first as well.
