This book is a true sequel to The Lord of the Storm. It fleshes out the original story, and adds depth to a very interesting set of characters. It is a must read for lovers of The Lord of the Storm as it features a controntation between Califa and Shaylah over the key incident in both their pasts.

That key incident involves a moment when Califa could have turned in Shaylah's name to the Coalition - sort of a Rome-in-space entity that they both were high level officials in. Shaylah was escaping with the slave, Wolf, and should they both have been caught, the story would have been over. In Lord of the Storm, Shaylah worried inordinately about whether Califa would be the one that the Coalition turned to when they were found missing.

Well, it turns out the Coalition did turn to Califa, but she did not betray her one and only friend. Only the Coalition demanded an exchange, a collar for a collar. So proud, slave-owning, slave-punishing, Captain Califa Claxton found the tables turned, and she now a gold-collared slave of the Coalition. What a price to pay for friendship.

When The Skypirate opens, Califa is already a broken women (almost). She is captured/kidnapped by The Skypirate, who is devastated to learn who she truly is, and her role in the mutual past of all denizens of Trios - a planet ripped assunder by the Coalition. But he has a secret of his own that burns through his soul. Thus the two main characters set out on a healing journey. Califa must learn to be a friend, to find a soul within, and to trust/love another individual besides herself. She has to internalize and realize the evil that the Coalition perpetrated, that she was key in moving forward. Becoming a slave was only the first step on that 12-step program (so to speak).

Whereas Lord of the Storm was very sexual, and Shaylah had a sexual journey, The Skypirate is very emotional. Both Califa and Dax have emotional scars to heal. Since it involves so much of the circumstances that plotted Lord of the STorm, this book is a very satisfying read. My only complaint is that I found it too much to believe that the Triotians would ever put Dax on trial, given how few in number they are after the Coalition destroyed their planet.

The Skypirate Dreamspun Justine Davis Justine Dare 9780451404916 Books Reviews

rather tedious tale, mostly focused on admiration of the male hero and got very tiring between his looks and his angst -- I couldn't finish it.
Totally enjoyed this book. Its the second of the series and stands alone quite well, but now I want the first book! The third is coming out soon. It was well written, the characters were well developed and was an enjoyable read. I highly recommend it.
I didn't think this book could be better than Lord of the Storm, but it was! Dax, the hero is a tortured soul. He feels that since he didn't die with everyone else on his planet that he was not worthy of living. Thus he takes on crazy, dangerous missions. Outstanding book! I loved it.
One of the groundbreaking books in the Science Fiction Romance genre! Don't miss all of the books in her series!!
It's a good sequel to Lord of the Storm. I enjoyed seeing the heroine grow and not use her background as excuse for her wicked behavior in the first book. This a good portray of 2 people find it harder to forgive themselves for some truly amoral acts than the forgiveness some of their victims offered. I wish Justine Davis still wrote science fiction romance.
This was a great book! I loved the characters, especially Dax and Califa. They are a great couple. I also love the complex and enthralling world Justine Davis has created with Skypirate and Lord of the Storm. It's so clearly drawn you can fall right into it. Skypirate is the perfect title too. Already pre-ordered the Rebel Prince. Can't wait!
First of all, I agree with the other reviewers, if possible, read Lord of the Storm first. (another excellent futuristic), These 2 books tie in nicely together. I absolutely love this book, it is my all time favorite sci-fi romance and the marker by which I rate all others. I first read it in 1996 and it definitely stands the test of time. It is one of my top 5 keeper romances. Out of print but you can still find it used.

Dax is the ultimate romance novel hero, alpha, tortured, mean on the outside with a heart of gold. Califa is a great heroine, smart and her transition from cold hearted coalition officer to slave who is genuinely sorrowful for her past is very believeable.

Why oh why doesn't Justine Davis still write more of these great books???
