Publisher Description
Welcome to Iradia, a place where money talks and the stars offer escape...
In a world where treacherous crime lords hold sway, Miala Fels’ father becomes a victim of their malevolence. Determined to exact revenge, she embarks on a perilous journey to hack into a villain’s financial empire and steal their ill-gotten wealth.
But fate has other plans in store for her.
After the vicious crime lord Arlen Mast meets his demise at the hands of a rival, Miala finds herself thrust into a whirlwind of action and emotion. As she nurses one of Mast’s enforcers, the infamous mercenary Eryk Thorn, back to health, their destinies entwine, setting the stage for an epic tale of passion and adventure.
Miala has a singular objective in mind: to enlist Thorn’s aid in facilitating her escape from Iradia, in exchange for a share of Mast's concealed treasures. Little does she anticipate that their alliance will kindle an intense, star-crossed love, destined to change the trajectory of their lives forever.
Customer Reviews
Long with no connection to rest of series
A little long and rambling. The beginning alone could have been condensed to a chapter or a prologue.
Also the plot was basically just a little interpersonal drama and the greed of criminals and has nothing to do the the Consortium like the rest of the series. Or at least there’s no connection I could see.
Unless these characters feature in future books (which I doubt as even the events of Book 0 were completely irrelevant here) there is no connection to the series as a whole beside introducing Iridia (a planet that apparently becomes important in a later book if the blurb further along is to be believed).
This book floats in a series that is supposed to have a common thread of “Evil Government”.
