Good morning my peeps, I hope your week went well . Woohoo it is Friday and a good weekend to find some new books . Today is the first novel of reader round up . We have a sci fi book for you from one of my favorite authors. WAYFARER AV494 by Matthew S Cox.
BOOK BLURB
Kerys Loring hopes an expedition to a distant alien ruin will make her career―assuming she lives long enough to still have one.
Her last team made a significant find, but her bosses took all the recognition and grant money. When Avasar Biotechnology appeals to her unique combination of experience and desperation, she jumps at the chance, even if it means leaving her little brother behind for a three-year trip.
At least she’ll be thousands of light-years away from her abusive ex.
Within minutes of arrival, her excitement shatters at the sight of her ex already there. Clinging to the hope his position with botanical sciences will keep him away from her team, she forces herself to continue.
On her first day in the ruins, she makes a profound discovery… but something goes terribly wrong.
Her domineering ex soon becomes the least of her problems as an unstoppable alien threat plunges Wayfarer Outpost into chaos. Trapped in an isolated facility with death stalking every corridor, Kerys finds herself up against an even more insidious threat than ancient aliens: the truth.
MY REVIEW
Kerys Lore is on the adventure of her life, she is on her way to an alien ruin on a distant planet. This could make her career finding this ruin When they land on the planet and start hunting around the ruin. Things go down hill fast when she sees her ex there and after finding a profound discovery on her first day. Things start to go down hill and now she is fighting for her life where people are going crazy and dying and a sinister ex stalking her around the dome. Will she survive what is happening and get home safely.
Oh my gosh the cast of characters in this book are so well written. Kerys is one of those characters that is strong and honestly has an ax to grind with the company that she use to work for. She is a fighter and when push comes to shove she will fight who or what ever comes at her. But there are moments where Kerys comes off whiny and you kind of want to shake her. Will is her ex and a botanist that is already working on the far away planet. He is well what can you say about a stalker . Not much but he just gives off such a creep factor and when you really get to know him and watch him with the others, you really just want to punch him. We get to meet a varied members of the group each of them has an attitude that will either get them killed or survive. Each character is well crafted and complex. You will love to hate some of them and cheer for the others .
This is one of those books that gives you all the feels. It seems like it is a cross between Aliens and Martian . The characters are well written and complex and you want them to come out alright . The author has constructed a well crafted story full of intrigue, conspiracy and lots of action that will keep you on the edge of your seat. There are moments that you feel that you are right in the middle of the action and there are a few places where you will be reading and then get a scare. This is a great book for those who love sci fi and horror .So if you want a good book to get lost in for a weekend check it out .It won't disappoint you .
