The Future War Part II — K.N. Kellum

Interstellar journiers Magnus, Giony, Zander, and Ramsey are sent out on another mission from Nubian headquarters. This mission is set to restore their flying privileges, which they had lost stealing another planet's flier on planet Gorgion. The goal is to rescue their friend and Secret Forces pilot Zander from Interstellar Forces, who were holding him ransom for a rare mineral called oky, found to double the speed of interstellar travel.
