Erins world-building is excellent and her characters are big and bold Escape Into Worlds
From USA Today Bestselling Author Aileen Erin comes the second book in the Aunare Chronicles
Broken, beaten-down, and plagued by nightmares, Amihanna di Aetes is surrounded by the Aunare race that makes up the other half of her heritage, but she feels alien amongst them. Shes not sure which is worse: SpaceTechs overt hatred of Aunare or the Aunares covert hatred of halfers. She hears their whispers whenever she enters a room and sees her death reflected in their eyes. Amihanna doesnt know who to trust anymore, but she hasnt survived this long by ignoring the warning signs all around her, especially when her instincts are screaming that a familiar choice is coming: flee or fight.
Her parents assure her everything is okaythat there wont be any reason for her to fight, let alone fleebut with Amihannas sudden return, questions arise among the Aunare: who should be blamed for the start of a full-scale war with SpaceTech, how much danger will the war bring, and is Amihanna truly fit to be the next high queen?
Honestly, Amihanna wants to forget all the politics, her betrothal to Lorne, and the possibility of being queen. Her needs are much more basic. All she wants is a solid nights sleep where she doesnt wake up screaming with the phantom pain of her skin burning. All she needs is to live without fear of a mob tearing her away from her family. All she hopes for is a chance to dream of a future instead of constantly fighting for her right to live.
And yet, somehow, everything she does leads her back to Lorne. He always seems to know when shes about to break under the pressures of her new life. His quiet patience is wearing Amihannas protective walls down, and shes terrified of what will happen if they fall.
Suspenseful sci-fi with complex world-building and a tough-as-nails heroine youll want to root for! Elizabeth Briggs, New York Times Bestselling Author of Future Shock
