After her family is killed in the cleansing, Bethany’s purpose in life has changed. No longer will she be allowed to work to save her dying planet. As a slave, endurance is her goal as she marks each day as one moment closer to an eternity spent reunited with those she loved. But when her planet is invaded, everything changes. Now she must decide either to align herself with those from her planet who condemned her faith and killed her family, or with the warriors who have conquered her world. Ultimately her choice will mean life or death for more than just her planet’s ecosystem. She alone holds the key to a powerful secret, and the fate of the entire galaxy depends on her decision.

Summary
Alone by Edie Melson. I am typically not a fan of YA or fantasy but this book captured my attention and held on. The descriptions were so good that I felt like I was there.
I was totally engrossed in the story. I wasn’t sure if Simon would switch sides. Was Japheth an angel? I wondered if he was going to be her brother. Josiah was a great hero! Loved him!!
Manaen and Bezek – would love to see them have your own book
Simon – throughout the story we wonder what his motive is
Josiah – great hero.
I received this book from publisher/author and was not required to write a positive review.
