Publisher Description
ONE DECISION COULD SAVE A PLANET—OR END IT.
Jessamyn Jaarda is on the run. After narrowly evading capture on Earth, she and Pavel find refuge on the Moon's Tranquility Base. But safety is fleeting. A stranger's arrival threatens to expose their location to Chancellor Lucca Brezhnaya, a leader willing to destroy worlds to keep her secrets buried.
With communication to Mars Colonial Command under constant attack, Jess is increasingly forced into leadership decisions she doesn't want to make. But as alliances shift and truths emerge, the fate of two planets hangs in the balance.
In this gripping installment of the Saving Mars series, Cidney Swanson delivers a tale of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of a young pilot determined to save her world.
Customer Reviews
Book 5 does not disappoint! Jess and Pavel are one of my favorite couples ever (I guess I should say
Jessamyn and her team are in hiding on The Moon and trying to get supplies so they can get out of hiding and stop the impending attack on Mars. But even while they are stuck cooling their heels, they have an exiting time!
In their free time they are helping to launch a social media smear campaign against the evil Chancellor Lucca ("smear" isn't exactly the right word when she is really that evil!), which is very interesting on how they handle it from a political/social standpoint.
While at the same time their are concerns on Mars, the attacks from last time (book 4) have put a severe strain on Mars already limited resources. The people of Mars are amazing the way they work together so selflessly (except for the occasional bad person) and how their society works together.
This is one of my favorite series of books and it's only a few years old. This is a series that I never want to end, hopefully there are many more books to come.
