Donte was born on a freighter in hyperspace, but he spent his teen years orphaned and homeless in a snowbound smuggler's port. Now he's a university student. The hot meals are nice and everything is warmer on his new planet, but life among people is so much more complicated. With only two friends—young Jordan whom Donte tutors and the fiery Selene who shares his table in the coffeehouse—Donte has things somewhat under control, but still he struggles with both unfriendly and friendly people, and he can't shake the feeling that he's getting it all wrong.
None of that matters after Jordan is stolen by slavers. Donte enlists Selene to help rescue the boy, and when Jordan is taken off-planet Donte and Selene follow. But determination and luck can only get them so far, and the closer the pair come to Jordan, the nearer they get to Donte's deepest fears, and a past he'd worked to hide from everyone--especially himself.
Donte knows all too well the horrors Jordan faces, but when his secrets are dragged into an open courtroom, will Donte find the strength to speak the truth and save the boy?
Captain Boy eBook KD Sarge
It's been a couple years since I read anything by Sarge, which is a shame because that meant my memory of the personality of The Dream's crew was a little hazy. But that wasn't enough to truly detract from my enjoyment of this story. It's basically a hero's quest in space. Donte makes an adorable hero and Selene is one heck of a side-kick/co-hero, because she is just so much more.I love that Sarge lets female characters be strong and save the boys. I could grumble that she's guilty of consistently making women strong by making them act like men (easy to anger and fight) and ignoring other forms of female strength. But she did include a Mothering type here, so maybe that is changing. I'm a little less forgiving in this case over the extreme stereotypical representation of the over-sexualized, fiery Latina. While I really enjoyed her as a character, I was a little uncomfortable about how close she plays to type.
For the most part however, I simply enjoyed the ride and plan to read more books by Sarge.

Captain Boy eBook KD Sarge Reviews
I found it an engaging 2-day read that fleshes out two characters of the Pendragon's Dream crew. This book's main characters, Donte and Selene were exciting to learn about. Brittle psyches pushed beyond comfort zones and safety limits are KD's specialty, and this book holds true to that style.
If you've read the previous Dream'verse novels, this is worth purchasing. Learn about why Donte's normal to 'see nothing but red' limits are so borked, and why Selene will pull a blade to defend Donte at the drop of a proverbial hat (and probably at the drop of a literal hat if the situation ever arose). And there's the requisite cameo by Eve, who's impeccable timing and ability to make slime go squish is always appreciated and enjoyed.
TL;DR--This book is a great addition to the Dream'verse and well worth the read.
I was so excited to see another installment in the Dream'verse, and Captain's Boy does not disappoint!
This is the fourth book in the series, and it's fun to see all of the characters from the Pendragon's Dream towards the end of the book, but the story centers around Donte and Selene. During the course of the story, they experience so many things that are horrible reminders of the past and daunting new situations, but they learn each other's strengths and how to work together. I love having the backstory that explains glimpses of their relationship that I got from the other books in the series.
I wish it was my gift to write insightful reviews that drop hints to tantalize, but I'm afraid I would end up spoiling the story somehow. So I will simply say that I HIGHLY recommend this book.
another fantastic book from K.D.!
this a prequel to Knight Errant, and tells how two of the shipmates (Donte & Selene) met. while it lives in the romance genre, it's also a story of strength & survival.
Donte's on-planet at college when the boy he's tutoring is sold to slavers. He & Selene sign onto a spaceship crew to chase after him.
things i love about K.D.'s writing it's wonderfully easy to empathize with her characters (in all her books), and even though this story exists in a sci-fi environment, she doesn't overdo the tech.
The more Dream'verse novels I read, the more of them I want! Donte and Selene are wonderful, as is the brief glance of a younger Taro. I really enjoyed learning more about the crew of Pendragon's Dream and the legend of Eve. I can't say too much more without spoiling it, but after everything, I really just want to give Donte a hug. Read this book! (And then read the others in the series!)
'Captain's Boy' is the fourth of four books by KD Sarge that all take place in the same universe. They can be read independently, but if read in the right order, it is a deeper experience, since there is more background. I have very much enjoyed reading all four books, starting with Knight Errant,' then 'His Faithful Squire (Knight Errant),' 'Queen's Man' and 'Captain's Boy.' The first two are my favorites.
I found the character development to be excellent, so much so that you get completely drawn into the characters and immersed into the stories. The writing took me through many emotions, from laughing to crying. Each book tells the story from the point of view of a different character, each very different. All of the books have adventure, some have romance, and heroism from a realistic human viewpoint. The books are also well edited.
