Neutral

Terran Times Second Wave #18

by Viola Grace

Ariadne loves calligraphy, the pen and ink meeting paper and the strange rituals that go with it. It gives her a focus and a reason to move forward, day by day. The rituals move her along, and it is her skill with the pen that gets her into the Volunteer Program.Training as a scribe brings her to the empire of Hredu as the means to slow the flow of requests to the emperor. She has no idea that she was summoned there for more than her penmanship.Usorn has led his people for years, but he needs an heir and a woman who is genetically neutral is his only option. If she can double as a scribe, it is a win-win situation.

All the little details of this short add up to a great quick read. The Empire is fascinating. The Emperor needs a little humbling. The heroine, which in often the case in Grace's writing, is wonderful.

She is a scribe! How cool is that? She has rad tattoos.

Much fun in this Science Fiction Romance romp.

Great book

I love the books from Viola Grace/Zenia Masters. I have read just about all of her books in 18 month. Love the romance/space books.....opens the mind to other world in a good way. They are short and get right into the story....I can read them in one sitting....I like to finish my books right away. My favorite ones were The Sector Guards series and Tales of the Citadel. Keep stretching the mind to the farthest reaches of the galaxy for us. Thanks
