The Deal (The Renegade #2)

Seriously, love these books! Hope there\’s more, but this ends close to where Renegade Star begins, so if we never get another, then that\’s still okay. Thanks for the fun!

Great book and great narration. I always look forward to Renegade books or anything else Chaney is attached to. Next up is Wayward Galaxy.

Honestly, I don\’t know how he does it. Chaney writes so well and releases books so frequently that I can hardly believe he\’s human. Add Luke Daniels to the mix and you\’ve got yourself one of the best scifi characters of all time: Jace Hughes. While most people probably found Jace through the Renegade Star series, the Deal covers Jace\’s time before he ever met Lex or Abigail. This book, along with the first prequel, The Renegade, shows his rise as one of the galaxy\’s most capable thieves. He\’s started to make a name for himself and this book shows exactly how he becomes the man we meet in Renegade Star. Seeing Jace talk with Fratley is especially fun, since I know what happens to these two in the main series. I sincerely hope we get more prequels in the future, but if not, I\’m still extremely satisfied. This book, along with the first one, stands alone as a self-contained adventure that both adds to the lore and shows off new characters. If you like Jace Hughes, you\’ll love this story. If you haven\’t had the pleasure of experiencing this saga, the Renegade and the Deal are a great place to start, but don\’t forget to listen to the main series. It\’s a universe to get lost in and I\’m glad I found it. Thanks, JN.

Just getting into the series. so far so good. Love the action and Luke delivers a stellar performance

JN Chaney prose is still very good but this book in the series bears too many similarities to book 1 to garner the same appeal than that of book 1. Essentially, Jace begrudgingly takes on some noobs in order to survive the pursuit of an overpowering enemy. The various encounters were written well but, again, they had a similar feel to how they were handled. As far as his companions, their backstories were a bit simplistic and lacked enough personal development to make them all that interesting. Luke Daniels\’ performance is top-notch as expected and I especially liked his Jack Nicholson-like imitation used for one of his youthful companions.
