To Sleep in a Sea of Stars

by Leave a Comment

“The skills honed in his YA fantasy series, Inheritance (Eragon, 2003), are on full display here in his vibrant world building, especially in the mythology of the alien tech. Paolini populates this universe with a large cast of interesting and relatable characters, and mostly avoids reductive good guy/bad guy dynamics, lending the story a sincere emotional depth. Highly recommended for fans of James A. Corey’s The Expanse series and for fantasy fans willing to try space opera.”―Booklist, starred review

Invasion: Zombie Apocalypse

by

I enjoyed this book right from the start. A lot like many Zombie books however,he had his own way of expressing situations and felt pity and empathy for these poor souls.It wasn’t justn shot em up and get it over with it was speculative and thoughtful. At every turn he could forget about the people he was helping but he wouldn’t just leave them alone to there situations. I truly enjoyed this book and it proves even Zombie hunters have a heart.
Hope you enjoy it also. – Amazon Review

Fated Blades

by Leave a Comment

I love a good romance especially when there’s a strong story line as well and even better, a power balance between the love interests. This story is a coming together of equals and is wonderfully free of needless misunderstandings. I do like it when grown ups just use their words. And revisiting Rada was a treat. It’s science fiction but the world building is deftly inserted and the tech talk comes in occasional and fairly brief snatches. This book stands alone but if you haven’t read the earlier novellas it will leave you hunting for them. – Amazon Review

Fated Blades

 

An uneasy alliance between warring families gets heated in this otherworldly novella from bestselling author Ilona Andrews.

At first glance, the planet Rada seems like a lush paradise. But the ruling families, all boasting genetically enhanced abilities, are in constant competition for power—and none more so than the Adlers and the Baenas. For generations, the powerful families have pushed and pulled each other in a dance for dominance.

Until a catastrophic betrayal from within changes everything.

Now, deadly, disciplined, and solitary leaders Ramona Adler and Matias Baena must put aside their enmity and work together in secret to prevent sinister forces from exploiting universe-altering technology. Expecting to suffer through their uneasy alliance, Ramona and Matias instead discover that they understand each other as no one in their families can—and that their combined skills may eclipse the risks of their forbidden alliance.

As the two warriors risk their lives to save their families, they must decide whether to resist or embrace the passion simmering between them. For now, the dance between their families continues—but just one misstep could spell the end of them both.
