Kurzbeschreibung

When the brutal Hameji battle fleets conquer his homeworld, young James McCoy runs away from home to rescue his older brother and sister, Ben and Stella. Though the undefeated Hameji are feared throughout all of inhabited space, James will stop at nothing to get his family back.

He soon finds a band of interstellar mercenaries who agree to take him in, but what he doesn't know is that Stella has become a concubine to the main Hameji overlord--and Ben has been brainwashed and made an elite shock trooper in the Hameji Army.

A 110,000 word novel introducing a new series of epic space opera.

WARNING: Contains some adult content including torture, gun violence, rape, and sexual themes. If this were a movie, it would probably be rated PG-13.

Quite Enjoyable 14. Februar 2012
Von Viking ZX - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
Having seen an early draft, I was very pleased to get my hands on the finished copy of Bringing Stella Home and read it in a few sittings (I'm a speed reader, so don't worry about a short length). Bringing Stella Home is an engaging book that is as much a study of human culture in the future as it is an adventure novel. While sometimes it could feel a little heavy on the political spectrum, it was kept relevant to the overall plot of clashing cultures and the rise and fall of...well, I'll let you read the book to find out on your own.

Overall, Bringing Stella Home is a fun read. The dialog flows naturally, the characters feel independent in voice and mentality, and the progression of events feels real. A good read, and I'll be looking for the forthcoming sequel.

Realistic and thought provoking 3. November 2011
Von Wallace Brown - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Vasicek continues to show his understanding of how things work in space. His description and use of advanced weaponry and tactics useable only in space were awesome.

The storyline is solid and keeps an excellent flow of viewpoints among the brothers and sister in the war-separated family. This change of viewpoints keeps the story fluid in its progress. James McCoy often comes off as being naive and immature as he displays his "at-any-cost" determination to save his siblings. This creates a more realistic storyline than most books can give. I mean how many teenagers would actually be able to come up with a good plan for rescuing their brother and sister who have been captured by a terrifying enemy army?

I rate this as four stars rather than five because of a few spots in the book that felt like the author was just telling everything that happened without showing any of it.

I recommend this book to any sci-fi reader out there.

Great Beginning in the Gaia Nova Universe 27. August 2011
Von Stephen Haskin - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
Bringing Stella Home is a great space opera from indie publisher Joe Vasicek. It's his second self-published novel (the first is Genesis Earth), and I'd say it's a great step forward for Vasicek as a writer and the book is an engaging, thought-provoking read.

Bringing Stella Home tells an intimate story of a merchant family in a vast interstellar human empire that is being beseiged by the mysterious and violent Hameji--a band of interstellar human nomads sweeping through the galaxy and conquering human star systems with crushing efficiency. When the Hameji, without warning, attack the McCoy's home system, James McCoy's siblings Ben and Stella are captured by the Hameji, and James steals away from home with a family starship and a band of mercenaries to rescue his family.

The book switches perspective between Ben, Stella, and James, each of whom are fully-fleshed our characters. I found myself wanting a little more history and depth on Ben, but otherwise, found each character enjoyable to read. The setting is very engaging--Vasicek creates realistic governments and cultures, and the brutal Hameji culture is especially interesting to unlock throughout the book. The pacing of the story moves along at a fast clip, with tension throughout the whole book. All of these elements make it a great improvement over Genesis Earth, which had a less interesting universe and a plot that tapered off a bit at the end.

As posted in the product description, this book contains some very mature themes, including rape. Vasicek confronts these themes well, allowing the reader to experience the horrible emotional impact of the experiences without getting graphic. Somehow, though, his characters come out better people from these experiences.

I am extremely interested to see what happens in this universe (what Vasicek calls "Gaia Nova"), and how these characters will shape its future, and really look forward to the Gaia Nova novels Vasicek has mentioned on his blog.
