Wow! Absolutely brilliant!

As Shanna and her fellow Scout Cadets, Amma, Ragar, Zandany, Taya and Verran alongside their starcats spent their days in exhausting training, Shanna’s thoughts were never far from their new alliance with the Starlyne and the horrors the Garsal invaders were inflicting on Frontier. They all knew the individual gifts they held needed to be honed to perfection so they could defeat the Garsal – the alternative was too dreadful to think about…

The Overlord’s orders throughou Wow! Absolutely brilliant!

As Shanna and her fellow Scout Cadets, Amma, Ragar, Zandany, Taya and Verran alongside their starcats spent their days in exhausting training, Shanna’s thoughts were never far from their new alliance with the Starlyne and the horrors the Garsal invaders were inflicting on Frontier. They all knew the individual gifts they held needed to be honed to perfection so they could defeat the Garsal – the alternative was too dreadful to think about…

The Overlord’s orders throughout the Garsal were feared – but The Matriarch was in control. The use of human slaves throughout their ship was inhumane; The Overlord delighted in the cruelties he could inflict. But earlier Anjo had managed to escape and was now surrounded by the humans including Shanna’s family and the starcats. Kaiden, Shanna’s brother formed a friendship with Anjo and taught him the ways of Frontier...

When Garsal attacks on Watchtower and their homes intensified and tragedy struck, immediate action was needed. Shanna’s team of cadets and starcats along with Patrol Ten and Fractus from the Starlynes headed Below, their mission to infiltrate the Garsal ship, free the slaves and stop the constant attacks on the humans. But could they do it? Could Shanna concentrate on what needed to be done, knowing what she knew? With Twister and Storm by her side, she would do her best. The dangers from the creatures of Below had them on edge; their knowledge of the lethal nature of Garsal weapons meant plans needed to be made and stuck to. The dangers were intense – but the alternative, where their home – Frontier – was controlled by Garsal meant their determination to win was paramount. What was in the future for Frontier?

Frontier Defiant by Aussie author Leonie Rogers is the final instalment in the Frontier trilogy and oh, what a doozy! I am so sad it’s finished – I loved the complete series; Shanna’s starcats Storm and Twister (and all the others!); the interaction between the young Scout Cadets as they learned their craft. It is one of those series though that MUST be read from book one! Though the back story is there, it will make more sense, and your enjoyment will be much greater if you read from the beginning. Most highly recommended.

With thanks to Hague Publishing for my digital copy to read in exchange for my honest review.
