Rats

The circle is broken. Dalton and Olivia have been captured, stolen away in the night by Mr. Shaddock and his crew of rodent mercenaries. Their fellow students have been warned not to intervene: there are politics in play, and everyone from the rat-clans to the Saunders Academy’s mysterious investors want this situation — and the school’s kidnapped students — to vanish in silence.

For Amy, Vail and the rest of the Castaways, silence was never an option. Putting their lives on the line, they set out into the endless void of the In-Between, intent on tracking Shaddock down and rescuing Dalton and Olivia.

From a space station at the edge of eternity to a cosmic pirate galleon, from a barren death-world inhabited by gigantic, carnivorous monsters to a sleek and shining neon metropolis, they won’t give up the hunt. They’re either going to bring their friends home, or die trying.
