WOW! Aliens, spies, and heartstrings, oh, my! Staying with the main character, the author dives deep into trauma, relationships, and determination. A reasonably quick action-filled read that leaves me wanting more! 

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The details are amazing, the world-building phenomenal! The characters are realistic (for aliens), and the connections between characters is completely believable. And you can’t miss the enjoyment of today’s amazing geeky references for a touch of humor! 

Disclaimer: There are several graphically described scenes of intimacy and violence.

Bias disclaimer: I read this book as a proofreading pass for re-publication, so I probably picked at it more than the average reader would have. That being said, I really did enjoy it. If you can swallow the one unscientific "gimme" that every scifi book seems to have (switching physical, chromosomal sex presentation on the fly), the rest of it was thoroughly engrossing. Characters were phenomenal, twists were fun, and I deeply empathized with the mid-book antagonist who turned out to be more of a monkey in the middle than true antagonist.
