For renegade soldier Sela Tyron and her former captain, Jon Veradin, the Reaches were a chance at a fresh start and freedom from the world-conquering Regime. But what should be easy is never easy. In this savage, hardscrabble region, ruled by the ruthless Guilds, the pair quickly find themselves in the crosshairs of scheming gangsters and cybernetically-enhanced warlords.
She was supposed to be dead. That was her plan anyway.
But when a mysterious young woman with strange abilities wakes up as a prisoner of vicious Zenti pirates, she faces a host of dangers. She needs to escape and find her brother. Can she trust her a self-confessed spy to help?
Suit up. Time to join the fight.
If you love gritty, epic space opera like The Expanse or Firefly, this second book in the Allies and Enemies series is meant for you.
Autorentext
Amy J. Murphy is not a Jedi. (Although she's married to this Scottish guy that claims to be one.) But, she is a fantastic liar.
She discovered this power at an early age and chose to wield it for good instead of evil. (The evil part remains highly tempting.) With this power, Amy writes space opera books with kickass heroines. These books are sometimes confused for military science fiction which is an easy mistake to make. She's ok with this as her debut novel, Allies and Enemies: Fallen, was a finalist for the 2016 Dragon Award for Best Military Science Fiction or Fantasy Novel. It so happened that her third book, Allies and Enemies: Exiles, was named a 2017 Dragon Award finalist in the same category. At some point, she infiltrated the ranks of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA).
When not geeking out at science fiction conventions, she lives in Vermont with the aforementioned Scotsman/Jedi and two canine overlords. Most recently she's been named a 2017 Kindle Book Award Finalist and her work appeared in the Amazon best-selling space opera anthology, Orphans in the Black.
