When the "Hesperides" reaches the planet Bonificium, Sharan finds herself running for her life. Rescued by Nowrie, she soon finds herself aiding the Endarans in their fight against the Adyanii. Arnoldson and Smith, determined to set themselves up as rulers of this world, set about eliminating some of the crew, including Sharan’s friend, Becca.
Now involved in the war between the Endarans and the Adyanii, Sharan wonders if she can find a way to defeat Arnoldson. Will she ever go home again?
=========
This prequel to the authors’ “Second Contact” provides the backstory that reveals how the mutiny and war on Bonificium began one hundred years prior to the story that unfolds in “Second Contact.” [Both books are part of the Lost Colonies series.]
There’s plenty of action and, although readers don’t see what happens aboard the Hesperides, the revelation of the actions taken by Arnoldson explains much about the events taking place on Bonificium. The interactions between Sharan, Nowrie, and the other Endaran women keep the intriguing [and sometimes surprising] story moving along.
Although the story ties up the plot points as far as Sharan and Arnoldson are concerned, readers are likely to seek out the next book to discover what has grown from Sharan’s actions.
