Unearthly World #5
To Catch A Warrior
Titus, leader of the southern Zargonnii, has made it his mission to find a single female he was placed in charge of months earlier; a female he lost while trying to save her; a female he cannot find. His determination leads him to the extreme. The only place left to look is a planet within a sun. A planet full of ice and snow and emptiness, except for one little female, Zabbie. Zabbie is hard and tough, a little warrior who has thwarted death too many times to count. Resigned to dying of exposure to either ice or fire, she can't make heads or tails of the strange alien who lands within her hell. One thing she knows for certain, whether or not Titus is real, she's keeping the emotional male in turmoil, and will go to any length to catch a warrior.

About the author
C.L. Scholey
98 books457 followersBorn and raised in Ontario, C. L. Scholey developed her passion for writing through her love of reading books as a child.

From the author:
Hello, I'm Connie! Now that we've met how about I tell you a little about me? I love to write, it's like having a super power.
I was born and raised in Ontario...yes I'm Canadian, no I don't live in an igloo, no I've never pet a polar bear, but I have run into a few black bears, seen wolves, moose, coyotes and I think there's a hundred pound squirrel in my attic.
I spend as much time as I can get away with looking for rocks in Bancroft. When I'm not in Bancroft I live in a small town, so people know me when they see me. Some ask me what I'm working on--some even ask me in a regular voice not a whisper.
I get bored easily, it's why one day I'll be working on assassins, the next Sci-fi, then Vikings, then vampires, then planning world domination--wait, what?
Moving on. I love animals and we have a dog, 120p mastiff. He's great with the kids and careful around them, but he'd run me over for a piece of bologna. Otherwise he loves us.
If you want to get to know me better join me on FB or twitter. Right now I need to change back into a mom, it's my best super power.

Not my favorite of the series. I was confused by Zabbie's (was a weird name) mental abilities, not to mention the strange planet within the sun and the whole Tonan thing near the end made no sense to me at all.
Titus was OK but his fixation with the missing Bertha was a bit too much.

I liked Titus and his mate.
I bit all over the place until she figured out what to do but in the end was a fun read and so much better then the previous one.
I am sorry the connection with the other series - the Catians didn't expand a bit more.
Now I am curious what's next.

More like a 2.5. I just can't warm to the Zargonii warriors.......I've tried, really I have. :-)

When we first meet Titus in a previous book I was saying to myself "this guy needs his own story" and low and behold I saw this story and was so excited I was screaming "yesssssss" in my head
"OK take deep breaths" I tried to remain calm and not get over-excited cuz I tend to do that and then it never lives up to the expectation that I have in my head. That was not a problem in this book I loved almost everything about this book how quick Zabbie and Titus get together and it actually made logical sense. Since she hasn't seen anybody for over a year and craves embrace and companionship which obviously Titus is happy to oblige with. It doesn't end their as Zabbie and Titus are two half's to a whole and you see that in detail when they get to know each other. The characters were greatly developed and though the get together really quick the romance felt very organic as it went on. I also really enjoyed Zabbie and her powers that were much more helpful in defeating alien.enemies then the human females in the previous books.
Over all this book had everything you need for a good time it was fast paced, had a great Romance, some action, and a little comedy that I enjoyed.
Yes I will read more books by this author.
Yes I would recommend this book to others.

Finally, a book about Titus!
So, Titus had been looking everywhere for Bertha, but couldn't find the mouthy human anywhere. This dying sun is his last hope of finding the female. And find a female he did, just not the one he's been looking for.
Zabbie is...weird is the only word I can think of to describe her. She's been under the influence of the Gorgano for far too long and it's taken a toll on her mental health. And it shows. Some of the things she could do were mind blogging.
Overall, despite my reservations about some of the characters, I liked this book far more than the previous one. The writing is, as always, good and I liked that we get to learn something new about the aliens in every book.

This is my second favorite book of the series (after Bay's) !
It's got more than just the typical Unearthly World plot of a) guy finds girl and they instalust b) bad guy attack c) girl develops mind powers d) baby.
This time that was an aura of mystery and creepiness during the whole book. I kept thinking "What the f is happening???"
It reminds me a bit of another book with a creepy planet (can't remember the name - two groups of warring people crash on a very weird planet with ruins of an ancient civilization. And of course guy form group 1 and girl from group 2 fall in love)

I couldn't finish 🤷🏾♀️
It's been a while since a book was so scattered that I didn't even bother to finish it. I put this down and came back to it and it still sucked. It was all over the place. What happened? The previous books were good, it's like someone else wrote this! I'm sorry, I tried, I did. Made it to 80% and gave up. One star for effort I guess 🤷🏾♀️

This series is really funny and the heroes are odd loking and with amazing personalities. The series is like chips, you just keep going once you start. If you want quick, fast paced, and sometimes cute alien romance jump in!

Une fois de plus, l’intrigue est intimement liée à celle des tomes précédents, nous lançant dans des aventures à travers l’espace, mais avec des bases solides. On retrouve un Titus obsédé par l’idée de retrouver et sauver Bertha. Cependant, ce n’est pas elle qu’il trouve, mais la courageuse Zabbie.
Titus est toujours égal à lui-même : sûr de lui, autoritaire, responsable et loyal. Il a beau ne pas supporter Bertha, il est incapable de l’abandonner et tient à la sauver. Son honneur est très important à ses yeux, autant que le devient très vite l’étrange petite humaine qu’il a trouvé sur la planète de glace désolée.
Zabbie est une humaine étrange, elle coupe totalement avec les autres héroïnes de la série. C’est une combattante tête brûlée, sur les bords suicidaire et proche de la folie. Elle a des capacités hors du commun, tout autant que l’est son passé sombre et mystérieux que l’on découvre peu à peu.
Les choses fonctionnent rapidement entre eux, notamment à cause d’une question de survie. Ils ont cru mourir, ils ont couchés ensemble et au final sont devenus des compagnons. Ils vont devoir faire face à bien des obstacles, rien qu’avec l’amnésie de la jeune femme et l’animosité de Cyn, le meilleur ami du guerrier.
J’ai été agréablement surprise par les différents rebondissements que rencontre le couple. Le fin mot de l’histoire était lui aussi étonnant, surtout avec un Cyn aussi irascible qui va lui causer bien des problèmes. J’ai hâte de lire son histoire maintenant que j’ai ma petite idée avec qui il risque de finir. Une lecture agréable qui prouve que l’auteure a réussit à aller au-delà de l’érotisme initial de sa saga.

To Catch a Warrior is the fifth book in the Unearthly World Series.
This is probably my favorite out of this series. To be able to see just how powerful a persons mind can be in these stories is astounding!
Zabbie has been alone for so long now she's now talking to fruit! She's convinced she's either going to freeze to death or die by the fires that are consuming the planet she's landed on. When she see what she's sure is a walking, grunting snowman she's sure she's lost her mind.
Titus, leader of southern Zargonnii, is haunted by the one human female he feels he failed. He's on a mission to find her, but is slowly running out of places to look and there is a battle closer to home these warriors need to be fighting. When he goes to look on the planet of ice and fire he finds one little warrior female who could give him everything he's ever wanted.
But with strange events occurring around Zabbie, Titus and the warriors are worried the Gorgano have had more of an effect on her mind than any other human they've encountered.

Titus is a great hero and I was eager to see him get his mate. In general, I enjoyed this story as much as all the others in regards to the growing relationship between the H and h, but the complexities of the world building have been taking over the romance. Zabbie's powers made for a nice twist on alpha male warrior and delicate human female who needs constant protection, but it got very confusing. I have to give the author credit for amazing creativity, but too often I found myself skimming through much of the book without really "getting it".
I am ready for a break, having read all 13 stories in The New World and Unearthly World series one after the other, but I'll be grabbing the next one when it's out - gotta find out what's happened to Bertha!?!

Creative and very amusing!
To Catch a Warrior is such a thrill. Zabbie is strong yet oh so amusing and Titus complimented her from the beginning. I thoroughly enjoyed the intrigue and lore of this series, the imaginative world Connie has spun has always left me craving more. I enjoy mentally sight-seeing strange and beautiful worlds with all her creations. I particularly love how much a fighter this leading lady was, how Zabbie fought with ease and grace was so admirable. I also really enjoyed the cameo of other characters from other novels. It leaves me desperate to hear the children's story one day. Also...yay Bertha! :) :) :) :) :)

I was going to give a 3 star rating but the end shows these stories taking an intriguing turn.
This story is good but at times it felt rushed and as if we were trying to get as much in as possible in a short amount of space.
Zabbie is, understandably, a little crazy. With time she gets things a bit more straightened out. Titus finds himself in the middle of a twister but one he loves...kinda. He loves having a mate but finds it hard to keep up with her train to crazy town.

Fantastic book from C.L. Scholey. This book is a continuation of the unearthly world series and while I loved the others I think this one tops them all. The main characters are fantastic and I would love to see a spin off series about the next generation.
If you enjoyed previous books in this series you'll love this one.

I liked this one, but I hated the worlds she created. If this were a fantasy universe where magic worked, maybe then I could stomach them. These two worlds completely defied the laws of any possible physics. I really enjoyed the characters and the plot aside from that.
ETA - the sex scenes are too rough for my tastes.

I really love this series and it's spin off. The books always make me chuckle and the stories are great. You can see the world's and characters the author writes about. She is an amazing writer. Can't wait for the next book.

An awesome story
This was a very good book. This one and number one were the best. I am terribly curious to know which warrior will fall in love next. Awesome job Ms Scholey! I was hooked from the start.

This Series is a favorite of mine, can't wait for the next installment the story arc of the 2 series (New World and Unearthly World Series)is coming to a very exiting place leading towards the end of the Gorgano. What a joyful ride it'd been!
September 28, 2016
I enjoyed this but it wasn't what I was expecting from Titus' story. It didn't have the wild feel that I usually like in this series. Zabbie was kinda cool with her "issues". I liked the idea of what was going on with her but it felt a little soft.

Not as good as Blu, but I loved it any way

C l Scholey books are so good. Love this series, really want to find out whats happens to Cy. I hope he gets his comeuppance in the next book. He needs a special mate.

I was on a binge at the time so my reading choices were highly regrettable.
