Description:
In 2310, humans persecute psions and hunt them to extinction regardless of guilt; Magnius Zoleki is one of them. He has everything a fifty-year-old man could want -- except for the psionic assassin trying to kill him. The last thing he needs is to get mixed up in an ugly interstellar war, but in order to escape the clutches of his nefarious mentor, he’s willing to risk it or die trying.
Astra: Synchronicity is an exciting sci-fi thriller that blends high-stakes drama with political intrigue in a white-knuckled ride through the known galaxy in 2310.

I had high hopes for this one, but it never really came together for me. It didn't help that there were so many plot holes and inaccuracies, I could drive a truck through them. The blurb casts this as "Jurassic Park" meets "Hunger Games." It's more li...more |

| This is one of those books that has a great back cover flap and an awesome first chapter, but when you get to the middle of the book, you end up asking yourself, "What the heck happened?" From the catchy blurb, I expected a fresh thriller with a soli...more | |
