As
a voracious reader, it is not often that I come across something that
hasn’t been done, but I was pleasantly surprised here. Ms. Mooney
takes the standard story of love and adventure, and displays it in a new
and wonderful environment. Add a strong heroine (cause hey, who
wouldn’t be screaming?) and a hero you fall in love with for who he
is, not his appearance, disgusting aliens, talking swords, stir, and
voila! You get a fantastic sci-fi romance novel.
This
introduction into the Surge Knights world depicts a race of peoples who
are devoted to protecting other planets from the U’Nar, an evil
(gross) alien race that exist only to destroy. The Surge Knights are
seeded on different planets, undergoing a 100 day metamorphosis to
become full Knights, the hope being that the transformation will be
complete prior to any invasion started. The remarkably naïve race
destroys the invasive force, then return home. Of course, we humans love
to throw a kink in things, point out all sort of inconsistencies, and
have learned lessons from all the horror movies we’ve seen.
Rachel
and Sorrow break all the rules and taboos to find love in one another
arms. You’ll be thrilled reading this book. You’ll also be excited
to know that it Ms. Mooney has several other books available…I’m
looking forward to reading more by this author.
Warning:
there is some graphic violence in this book in relation to the alien
invasion.
