Shelves: first-reads-giveaway, self-published, science-fiction, young-adult

I received this book through the first-reads giveaways and I have to say I enjoyed it. It was a good bit of escapism. I thought it could use a little editing, though, mainly to add more descriptions. There are so many places and aliens in the story that I wanted to see more of them, and occasionally it would have helped to know where someone was a bit more exactly. Still, I enjoyed the story and would certainly read book two.

Shelves: sci-fi

I have to say that the book started out a little slow, which was good since it laid a good foundation for the rest of the story. Lots of action as well as betrayal. Now Lakiska... When is book 2?

I won this book on goodreads as a first-reads giveaway. I really wanted to give this book 5 stars as I felt that the storyline was compelling, but I caught a few grammar errors so I only gave it 4 stars. I did enjoy this book though and will recommend it to a few of my friends that I think will like it.

About Lakisha Spletzer

I'm still marching onward and looking forward to all the writing projects and even collaborations (yep, this has me excited!) that I will be doing in 2013.

A little bit about me:

I'm an Indie Cross-Genre writer of science fiction/fantasy. I started writing stories and poetry at the age of 8 and haven't stopped yet.

I've learned to not let life's many road blocks and speed bumps throw me to the curb....more
