Dusty Reads is a weekly meme, hosted by Giselle @ Xpresso Reads, featuring a book that has been sitting unread on our home shelf for some time.
Books don't have to be 'x' years old. If you've had the book for a few months without reading it, it's dusty! ;)
Ok, so this time 2 books: books #2 & #3 from Dom Testa's Galahad series: The Web of Titan & The Cassini Code. This is YA sci-fi series & I enjoyed a lot the 1st book The Comet's Curse, (it was actually a book I've won from a fellow blogger). Last year I bought The Web of Titan & The Cassini Code, but haven't gotten around to them, hopefully this year I will, 'cause I should catch up, 'cause there are already six books published...

After triumphing over a
saboteur bent on destroying Galahad, Triana and her Council are eager to
avoid any further complications. But as Galahad swings around the
ringed planet Saturn, they encounter a mysterious metal pod orbiting the
moon of Titan. The teens prepare to bring the pod and its contents
aboard, only to be faced with a another crisis: an illness that is
beyond their medical experience. Dozens of crew members fall into a
comatose state, only to awaken with strangely glowing eyes. To make
matters worse, the systems of Galahad begin to fail. With time running
out, can Triana and her shipmates escape the Web of Titan?

The teenage crew of Galahad
has survived their first encounter with an alien race. Though shaken by
the power of The Cassini, Triana and her Council are determined to
continue their mission. But some of the crew don’t agree. Led by the
charismatic Merit Simms, a small group of crew members begins lobbying
for a return to Earth—just as the ship enters the Kuiper Belt, the
deadly minefield of asteroids that surrounds the solar system.
As Galahad
dodges a storm of asteroids, Triana finds herself dealing with an
increasingly hostile crew. Even some members of the Council are
beginning to listen to Merit’s arguments. Can Triana find a way to
prevent a mutiny aboard Galahad, and lead her crew to safety?
