Revenge by Dani Hoots

4.0

Revenge is a fast-paced YA/NA LGBTQ+ sci-fi western with just a hint of vintage of Star Wars thrown in for good measure. The opening chapter starts with a BANG and the action never slows down. I enjoyed the multiple POV’s and seeing how each character reacted to what was going on at the time. The interaction between all 4 main characters was humorous at times, yet there is an undercurrent of love and hurt that needs to be addressed. Revenge is a heartwarming story of friendship and accepting people as they are. What an ending! I cannot wait for the next installment.

“It has been three years since Elvira "Ellie" Ryder was betrayed by her ex-boyfriend Cor, which caused the destruction of her people by invaders from a different Zone. Now she will do anything to find him and make him pay.

Ellie has found someone who knows where Cor is. The price—assassinate a half-human, half-Sirian who is trying to join the Society, a high-class club only for the rich. Ellie takes the job, as it wouldn’t be the first assassination job she has taken, and heads to the Human Zone. However, when she learns more about her target, the more she realizes what is going on behind the curtain, and how her people were really destroyed.

Will Ellie be able to forgive Cor after learning the truth? Or will she forever hold on to that hatred?”
