I read and review whatever strikes my fancy and many things strike my fancy. I'm particularly fond of Young Adult, New Adult, dystopian tales, and mystery thrillers. Easily distracted by the newest book in the shelf.

The Star Host

The Star Host - F.T. Lukens I would give this book a hearty 4 1/2 stars.

What a great story this is! I love the author's clean, fresh, yet uncomplicated writing style. The action scenes were fast paced and exciting. Very reminiscent of Star Trek and Star Wars, the world building was rich with details and the dialogue flowed seamlessly. In the midst of the action sequences, the words literally poured off the page, running like a movie through my head. It appears that this will be a series and I do hope it is because one book with Ren and Asher is just not enough and I have to know what happened to Ren's village.

A great cast of characters from the shy, yet proud Ren to the confident Asher with just a pinch of mock arrogance. A wonderful array of secondary characters complete the cast.
