Still love it all these years later. Here’s the thing about Wing, you’re either totally on board or you’re not.
I’ve seen a lot of bad faith criticism of this series over the years and I gotta say, the concept of a bunch of young people being the only thing stopping a complete political and social meltdown between the earth and the colonies really doesn’t seem that out of pocket after the last decade we’ve had. Is it outlandish and all over the place sometimes? Yes, of course. That’s politics and our key players are all 15-16. If anything I think this series captures the insanity of political upheaval, war, and being a teenager pretty damn well.

I really like reading these books with things outside of the television series and OVA. It's very interesting to see what the pilots are up to all the time. They never seem to have boring lives, haha. This one was short, but still very good.

3.5 stars, rounded up. A solid interlude that fits in between the TV show and Endless Waltz.
