Elyon has a habit of running off. Every time she defies Boone’s orders, he’s ready to shoot her himself. But he is grudgingly obligated to safeguard the Overlord’s “weapon” - a feisty, impetuous teen-aged girl - until the Overlord can use two rare crystals to control her. As Elyon’s talents grow, Boone realizes that such a weapon should not be in the hands of a madman. He devises a risky plan that could free them both from servitude and deliver Elyon to the one person who can help her find her Reia, the rival overlord who created her. And the time to execute this plan is when the two overlords go to war. If Boone is caught, he will become the next victim of the weapon. If his plan succeeds, he will be taken as a hostage by Lady Reia. The full extent of his plan is only possible if he can – from his cell – help them escape the Overlord once and for all.
Ingrid Moon is an author, educator, and scientist, among other things. Early indoctrination into science and speculative fiction led her to pursue science and technology as a career.
She lives in Los Angeles with her family and many, many (too many) cats, pigs, and squirrels, but she is not a crazy cat lady.
This is an enjoyable read from beginning to end. This will be going on my shelf of READ AGAIN! I found the book enticing, and well thought out. Nothing seemed out of place in the scenario. I can't wait to read another of her offerings.
