In the year 2193, the population of Earth was approximately twenty billion people. Before a silent, relentless killer stalked the population, leaving destruction and devastation in its wake. It had only one name, ‘Virus’ and it never slept, it never faltered and it never died.
From this killer there was nowhere to hide, there were no terrorists to blame, no environmental catastrophe to point a finger at. It killed without mercy or remorse. A deadly assassin with humanity as its target. Within seven years from the first sign of the ‘Virus’ it had wiped from the Earth, 38% of the population. Within the next seven years, the ‘virus’ mutated.
Despite all the best efforts of the remaining scientists, government agencies, researchers and doctors using everything at their disposal. The ‘virus’ ravaged the world. Taking life after life until the ‘virus’ mutated once more. Eventually it killed without discrimination. There was no cure and no way to stop it. As the years passed, speculations over the cause of the ‘virus’ were many.
Militant terrorists was a favorite theory, another was a plot by beings from outer space to take over the world. The most common belief was that an environmental experiment backfired. Of course, the most likely suspects for this were covert science government agencies that were experimenting in anti-gravity and hazardous space technology. As of this writing, none of these theories were ever proved.
Twenty-one years after the first sign of the emergence of the ‘Virus’ only one billion people remain on Earth. Predominately females. In essence, if the XY chromosome is not extinct, it is on the endangered list.
When the odds are stacked against her, can she survive and keep the people who depend on her not only safe from the virus but their own government who have sold them out to a race of interstellar species!
Can one woman make a difference in this world?
She can if her name is Peyton St. Hill, daughter to the stars. Touched by the Divine and given abilities far exceeding those of a Goddess. Peyton with her sisters and thousands of women will rescue the Jenersar Warriors from servitude and together they will escape Earth and reach for the stars, somehow...
Nine planets known as Maikonia. In the language of the Stars this means. Home! Created and shielded for just over two million years Maikonia awaits the Star Daughter and all she welcomes into her heart and on to her world.
In this first installment we follow the adventures of Peyton and her sisters as well as the Jenersar Warriors in leaving Earth and traveling to Maikonia.
I really wanted to like this story. Sadly, the punctuation was so atrocious that I couldn’t get any further than page 26. Periods where commas should have been. Very frustrating when I have to correct as I’m reading. Shoddy attention to detail.
Future Earth has been devistated by a virus. Peyton St Hill was 5 when most males died. Her mother an addict her father unknown, she was raised by her grandparents. Another wave didn't discriminate. She lost her beloved grandfather. Her grandmother follow a few years later. At 19, Peyton was in her own. A genius with a logical and analytical mind, she did what she had to to survive. Then the Coalition came, in answer to the call for help. The aliens promised a cure, Earth's government betrayed her people. Human women and their malleable DNA, making them a valuable commodity. Peyton and her sisters of the heart, have a plan to save as many females as the can. The have enlisted the Coalition 's own warriors against them. Peyton is not a normal human. The virus not a normal virus. The Earth is a sentient being. She is making changes. Peyton, her sister, her warriors and the women who want to escape have been given a new home by the entity who created all. Peyton has been given power and the title of daughter to make it happen. Change is coming to the universe. A quirky young women and her misfit family, backed by the strongest warriors in the universe, who are now family, are going to make it happen. Would rate as PG, adult content but not graph in depictions. A lot of humor. The warriors are alpha-mellows, with literal minds. Powerful and fierce. They find strength and understanding, in the women, as they adapt to being free. The women all very in age and life experience. They have their flaws. They work well together. Playing to their strengths. A nice epilogue, to wrap up the beginning of their adventure. A set up for the arrival to their new home world. Looking forward to the next book.
This is one of my favorite books ever! The characters are interesting and funny. I recommend this book to everyone, I can't wait for the next book. It was a great Christmas gift to myself😊
I really like this new series by L.M. Lacee. All of the people are very engaging, I loved the interaction between them. The storyline was new for me, it is nice to find something new. I highly recommend this, made me laugh in parts and sad in others.
I wanted to give this story five stars because it was just that good, in my opinion. Unfortunately, this author needs a copy reader and editor, desperately! Despite that, the imagination the author displays is impressive. I won't recap the synopsis of the book, which is well done, and needs no expanding. I will say, I am thoroughly enjoying the series, and highly recommend it to anyone who is willing to get past the lack of editing issues.
