Jailbreak: A space opera adventure (The Ungovernable Book 2) Kindle Edition

by R.M. Olson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 220 ratings

Breaking into one of the most secure prison planets in the system isn’t the hard part. The hard part is going to be getting back out again.

They just pulled off the heist of the century. Now ex-smuggler pilot Jez and the motley crew of the Ungovernable have a promise to keep: an extraction from a high-security political prison. But the timeline for the rescue is shorter than they ever imagined, and if they want to save their target from certain death, they’ll have to go in blind—no specs, no intel, no time to prepare, and only the skeleton of a plan. And between prison gangs, murderous guards, and a vicious warden, extracting their target might be the least of their worries.

Jailbreak is the second book in R.M. Olson’s science fiction space opera series The Ungovernable. With a crazy, close-knit crew, plenty of humour, and loads of action, Firefly meets Ocean’s Eleven in this fast-paced, kick-ass, wickedly fun series.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

R.M. Olson writes feel-good space opera featuring diverse casts, found families, and loads of action. R.M. has ridden the Trans Siberian railway, jumped off the highest bungee jump in the world, gone cage-diving with great white sharks, faced down a charging buffalo bull, and knows how to milk a goat. Currently they reside in Alberta, Canada with their four children, three cats, and a dog the size of a small bear. R.M. goes hiking and skiing more often than they probably have time for, eats more chocolate than is probably good for them, and reads more books than is probably prudent.

    The story grows, and the stakes get higher. Excellent character growth both through their getting familiar with each other and having to depend on each other in high stakes lock down. It's a good build book, getting to see more of the characters.

    This time the Ungovernable crew break into jail to rescue Ysbel’s wife and 2 children. It is one of the most secure prison planets in the system, so getting back out again is going to be a problem. It is not a pleasant experience, especially for Jez, who can’t seem to keep her mouth shut and gets punished for it often by an especially brutal guard. They finally come up with somewhat of a plan, but then it all goes sideways and it seems like all is lost. The finale is full of action, surprises, and ends with things turning out just the way I hoped they would, and with the crew closer than ever. I look forward to reading the rest of the series to see what this crew gets up to next.

    I was waiting for this story as soon as Lev told Ysbel that her family was still alive, but imprisoned. Definitely worth the read. I think I liked this book even better than the first. Good character development, relationships, action, and fighting against the system. I loved the colorful new characters especially Ysbel and Tanya's daughter Olya! I can't wait to read the next book!

    This author is particularly good at keeping each of her character’s voices clear and distinct. She also created a prison break story that circumvents a lot of tropes and keeps you guessing. Great read!
