About this listen
Every day I wake up with fear screaming through every cell of my body, telling me to run, run, run before they find me.
Run before they pull me from my bed and drag me through the streets. Run before they throw me in an execution arena and cheer while I’m tortured until the last scream is ripped from my body.
But every day I shove that fear down and get out of bed. I tell myself they won’t find me today. I’ll be okay. I can make it one more day without being found. I just have to keep going. But it’s a lie. Everything about me is a lie.
I’m not sure how much longer I can keep living a life of lies before I’m caught.
And yet, I have to keep going. I have no other choice. I’ve lasted thirteen years stuck on Earth with my mother, hiding, hunted, knowing that one wrong move could mean our deaths, and I’m not giving up now.
It’s not our fault we’re stuck on the wasteland that is Earth. It’s high crime, high poverty, high pollution, run by a corporate conglomerate - SpaceTech. They seemed like a savior when the world’s economy collapsed but having them in control is even worse than our former fascist government. And just my luck - the only thing that SpaceTech wants more than money is me. Alive. Dead. I don’t think they care as long as I’m found because I’m the half-Earther daughter of the Head of the Aunare military, the biggest alien threat to SpaceTech’s authority.
I haven’t seen my father since I was six.
When everything went violent between SpaceTech and the Aunare, he was off planet. Returning Earth to save us would’ve meant war, and apparently my life wasn’t worth the risk. He abandoned me and my mother here, and so far, we’ve survived. But every day is hard. Whenever things get truly bad, I close my eyes and see myself on a beach, hear a voice calling out my true name—the one I can never say aloud - and I know wherever that is, whoever that is, it’s home.
I have to find my way home somehow. One day, my luck will end. I have to leave Earth and SpaceTech territory before they find me.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that no one is coming to save me. Not the Aunare. Not my father. No one is coming. I’m going to have to find a way to save myself.
From Aileen Erin, the USA Today best-selling author of the Alpha Girl series, comes an epic adventure in space: The Aunare Chronicles!

I might be a seer with a photographic memory, but I don’t see the trouble headed my way until it’s too late. Suddenly, I’m surrounded by enemies and fighting for my life.

After her ship takes damage, she's forced to re-route to a space station where her past and present collide with dangerous consequences. Kira's existence holds the key to a faltering peace treaty with the Tuann - a technologically advanced alien race who dislikes and distrusts all humans.

Charlie7 is the progenitor of a mechanical race he built from the ashes of a dead world—Earth. He is a robot of leisure and idle political meddling—a retirement well-earned. Or he was, until a human girl named Eve was dropped in his lap. Geneticists have restored Earth’s biome and begun repopulation. But primate cloning is in its infancy; human cloning is banned. Far from a failed genetics experiment, Eve is brilliant, curious, and heartbreakingly naïve about her species’ history. But Eve’s creator wants her back and has a gruesome fate planned for her.

I run a rock quarry, where humans’ thin skin is a detriment to productivity. Overseeing these humans is like trying to herd yanaks. If I don't burn, beat, or strangle them to death by the day's end, it will be a miracle.

Six years ago, I awoke in a cage with no knowledge of who I was or where I’d come from. Six years ago, I was spared the flesh markets and instead thrown in with a group of savages, where I learned it was fight or die. Now, eight Orders of Assassins are converging on the only home I’ve ever known. All in hopes of purchasing new blade slaves for their ranks. I’m for sale, yet all I want is a life far from death and ownership. Then I meet them, the Order of Scorpions. Their allure is a threat to the freedom I crave, but I won’t fall victim to their sting, no matter how tempting it might be.

“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 best-selling 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 best-selling author of Future Shock)

Amazing book for a good series
I think that this book is a book that will get you hooked and wanting to listen to the rest of the five book series. I read the first four books before the final book came out and when I got around to reading the last book after it came out I was astonished at how well the author closes up the series. I truly recommend reading this book if you are in to a YA series about a half human half alien.

Excellent Narration - Lackluster Story
I'm torn between great narration and a mediocre (at best) story. The MC was not very likable to me. There was one part where I thought the MC took charge and I was like "now we get to the good part" and I was left wanting. It seemed to me that the MC was all over the place. A strong, selfless character in some places and a self-centered brat in others. I really wanted to like it but in the end it feel short.
Kudos to Frankie Corzo for getting me through it. If it hadn't been for the excellent performance, I would have stopped listening half-way through.
