The race begins to save Lysette as Katar's search of the war torn continent leads deep into the savage wilderness of the Treborelan Mountains. Five Star Reviews Ms. Stanford continues to surprise me with her creative story telling. She pulls you into a riveting plot that barely gives you time to catch your breath. Action, suspense, murder and romance are my favorite combination and the author nails this challenging mix to the wall and leaves you coming back for more. This was a great book from Stanford but it was SciFi this time and much longer than any of her other books, which was great She is really starting to spread her wings into different types of stories but with the same strong characters and solid plot lines. If you liked her other books, you'll love this one I know the stress and struggle to find the right voice to go with the genre I'm working in, which is why it always amazes me when an author moves into a new genre and not only pulls it off, but makes it look seamless and easy, which is exactly what Alaina Stanford has done in this book She's stepped into SciFi with this story, building a whole new world of laser cannons and global war. The action is both similar to her previous works in some parts but in others its way different, which makes for an exciting read in general but opens up a new type of combat by this author. It was great to see her put on a new hat and that she looked good wearing it. Romance is here as well, which isn't my cup of tea, but it moves the story forward and also helps build tension, so not only was it essential in the drive of the plot, it made it bearable for the non romance reader. Overall, this was a great read for both Stanford's existing writer base and newbies who enjoy scifi. Katar and Lysette are the lovebirds in this book and their story is told perfectly well, as they are believable and not corny. There are some errors in the book, but I do not feel that spoils the read at all. Overall, I enjoyed the book as it didn't drag and it took me only two days to read. If you like romance, you're bound to like this.
