You know how crazy it is for me to dnf a book with all my feel good tropes? This book is a sci-fi fated mates, humans are the underdogs story � and I was bored to tears.
Both main characters are missing personality, they feel very mechanical, not interesting, bland bleh. The length of the book is something else. It was too long, like it dragged and once the relationship progressed I didn’t want to keep reading. I was hemming and hawing over opening my kindle for two days. TWO. I read four other books on my iBooks just to avoid going back to this story. There’s only so much running from assassin scenes in a book I can take. Let’s eat some food or buy some clothes.

But it's honestly sooooo much more than that. This book is the perfect blend of sci-fi, fantasy and enemies to lovers (although not quite lovers in this book) - Both fmc and mmc are wonderfully complex characters you can't help but root for, individually and together, sadly we don't see much of that these days.
The world building is exquisite, the unique talents of characters, the hierarchy of power players and the machinations of the bad guys *chef's kiss*
100% recommend and I can't wait for the next book...more

well well well, if it isn't a 5 star book. I confess I haven't had many of these in the past year. if you enjoy gladiator style contests, sci-fi space well well well, if it isn't a 5 star book. I confess I haven't had many of these in the past year. if you enjoy gladiator style contests, sci-fi space exploration, fierce and intelligent heroines with an attitude problem (not snarky), inter-species marriage of convenience and Ancient Greek civilizations (Minoan culture) pick it up.
