Hero (The Hero Rebellion Book One)
Hero (The Hero Rebellion Book One) Belinda Crawford
**Harry Potter meets The Golden Compass in an action-packed sci-fi about a dauntless teen and a centuries-old plan to change the world.**
Hero Regan is special, and not in a way she likes. She hears voices, voices in her head that other people can’t. Surrounded by butlers, bodyguards and tutors, insulated from the outside world, her only solace is Fink, a six-hundred-kilogram, genetically engineered ruc-pard. They share lives, thoughts, triple-chocolate marshmallow ice-cream and the burning desire for freedom.
Their chance comes when Hero is allowed to attend school in Cumulus City. Here Hero discovers she is an unwitting part of a master plan set into motion by the first colonists, a plan she must either help or foil if she’s ever to attain the freedom she craves.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

Paragon.EXE Drew Cordell
Paragon.EXE is the prequel novella to the Absolute Knowledge trilogy.

Always love George's stories. He weaves mythology into his stories in such a clever subtle way. Must read!
That neon title really steals the show! Very eye catching, and I love the concept of reinterpreting fairy tales in a cyberpunk setting.
A fascinating take on ancient Greek mythology! Opening chapters bring the reader right into this page-turning story. Don't miss out!
This story looks intriguing, and I've never read a book centered around a fox before! I'm excited to learn more, and I like your cover as well! :)
