This book seems like quite an adventure! I like that you included a quote to prove your point. I'm happy to see the theme of the book is about treating others respectfully, as that is so important. This was a great and very thorough review!

It sounds like great action-packed sci-fi and fantasy novel as it has a recurring theme of treating people with dignity and not demeaning them because of their differences, which I think is going to be my favorite part. Congratulations on being BOTD!

Lilla sounds like a strong, well-developed character. The book sounds like an action-packed science-fiction with thrilling scenes and world-building. I think I will pass on this one, as it's not really my kind of book. Thanks for the lovely review.

This book seems to bring various aspects from science fiction and fantasy novels, it has magic, romance, action, various technologies that we don't see nowadays. I don't know if it is for me, but congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the interesting review!

This book in the series sounds very interesting. Science Fiction with a spice of romance and mages doesn't sound bad. Thanks for a detailed review

I love characters who teach courage. Uhna wasn't happy with the way the planet was run and she decided to make changes by rescuing the refugees. She damned the possible consequence of being charged for treason. That's a lot of courage right there. Great review.

I'm interested in both the sci-fi and fantasy elements of the book. Lilla seems like a strong female protagonist, the book has lots of action and suspense, and the passage from the first to the third-person perspective adds more complexity to the narrative structure. Thanks for your review!

I hope Lilla gets control of her panic attacks to help the rebellion. Lilla seems like a young lady that cares for her people, a interesting book for sure, enjoyed your review, thank you.

I love the cover of this book. It is beautifully illustrated. I am not a fan of science fiction/fantasy, so I have no interest in the book. Thanks for the review.

Love the cover. But I'll be passing on this, as it's not a genre of particular interest. Nevertheless, the author writes very well and the opening chapter is a true attention-grabber. Congratulations on achieving BOTD and best wishes in finding an appreciative reading audience.

Thanks for a detailed review. Though how strange it seems like most scifi, this particular book metaphorically surmised real life events. The exciting scenes keeps readers engaged and it concludes with a moral lesson why one succeeds or fails.
