“Suspenseful sci-fi with complex world-building and a tough-as-nails heroine you’ll want to root for!” — Elizabeth Briggs, New York Times Bestselling Author of Future Shock

“In this bleak world, one spark of hope soon turns into an inferno. And just like a fireball, once this story is ignited, it just doesn’t stop.” — Maria V. Snyder, New York Times bestselling author of Navigating the Stars

From USA Today Bestselling Author Aileen Erin comes the now complete Aunare Chronicles.

In an all-too-plausible future where corporate conglomerates have left the world’s governments in shambles, anyone with means has left the polluted Earth for the promise of a better life on a SpaceTech owned colony among the stars.

Maité Martinez is the daughter of an Earther Latina and a powerful Aunare man, an alien race that SpaceTech sees as a threat to their dominion. When tensions turned violent, Maité found herself trapped on Earth and forced into hiding.

For thirteen years, Maité has stayed hidden, but every minute she stays on Earth is one closer to getting caught.

She’s lived on the streets, gone hungry, and found a way to fight through it all. But one night, while waitressing in a greasy diner, a customer gets handsy with her. She reacts without thinking.

Covered in blood, Maité runs, but it’s not long before SpaceTech finds her…

Arrested and forced into dangerous work detail on a volcano planet, Maité waits for SpaceTech to make their move against the Aunare. She knows she’ll be used as a pawn soon. If she can’t find a way to stop them, there will be an interstellar war big enough to end all life in the universe.

But how can one girl—one prisoner—prevent the total annihilation of humanity without getting herself killed in the process?

Review

"In this bleak world, one spark of hope soon turns into an inferno. And just like a fireball, once this story is ignited, it just doesn't stop." - Maria V. Snyder, NYT Bestselling author of Navigating the Stars

"Suspenseful sci-fi with complex world-building and a tough-as-nails heroine you'll want to root for!" - Elizabeth Briggs, New York Times Bestselling Author of Future Shock

"The strongest point for me was the characters, and especially the main character and narrator of the story as it is written in the first person: Maité Martinez. Her voice is unique and strong from beginning to end, developed and full of layers and complexity. I felt for her at every turn, and related to her a lot. She's a three-dimensional character, with her secrets and contradictions, and she felt real, which I loved. Whether it be her thoughts, or dialogue, the writing gave her a great sense of realism and I loved following her journey through her eyes." - Tempest of Books

"This has been my best sci-fi read in a while and I loved that it was not only YA but that Maité was half Latina, it made me so happy." - The Caffeinated Reader

"This story sucked me in and kept me interested until the very end. Maité is a simple yet complicated heroine. All she wants to do is stay under the radar and live her life, but her life was complicated from the moment she was born and she is now learning just who she is and by the end what's expected of her. I loved the characters and I loved the world." - Urban Fantasy Investigations

"An intense and imaginative introduction to a new series." - Bex, Beckie Bookworm

"I was tearing up while Maité screamed, "Do it! Jump!" and was having flashbacks to Battlestar Galactica and Starbuck screaming, "WE'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!" Chills down my spine , the moment was just so intense." - Ben, Tachyon Decay

"I was sucked into the first chapter by the plot , and stayed because of characters." - Gwendolyn, Goodreads Reviewer
