YA Sci-Fi Romance
Date Published:1/21/13
Sixteen-year-old Cassidy Tomei was one of the lucky few airlifted aboard the Wonder to the planet Nyx. This emergency exodus from Earth was meant to bring new hope for the remaining survivors of humankind, but there’s one problem. Humankind isn’t alone on this mysterious new planet.
On Nyx, Cassidy is one of many living amongst subzero temperatures and with nothing, but a meager ration of food for every household. When the rations deplete, she flees to into unfamiliar wilderness in search of food, but instead discovers debris from a foreign spacecraft that proves humankind is no longer the dominate species.
Soon, everything she knows is at stake and everyone she loves is dead. But she’s got one more battle to fight when she’s taken prisoner within Pelhoi, a concentration camp constructed specifically for humans where hominoid creatures dubbed, “the Achillai” reign supreme.
MY REVIEW:
This story is not only Sci-Fi but has some Dystopian type feel to it as well. I liked the way the romance developed, it felt believable and smooth.
There is plenty of suspense and mystery to keep the reader invested and I really liked the characters. They had just enough to make them not so one dimensional.
This story may be a bit on the not realistic side at times, but hey, it's fiction.
