Synopsis

He wants to escape. She wants him dead. But the giant flying cats want something else entirely...

Fledgling pilot Jayden is one of the first generation to be born on the newly colonised planet of Osivirius. Now he’s determined to get his family out of ‘Wormsville’, the part of the colony where people are little more than numbers. So when Commander Tun offers a huge reward for finding the location of the rebel base, he jumps at the chance.

Nettle hates everything to do with the colony—especially the military arm—and is fiercely protective of the simple, grounded ways of the rebels. So when she and her brother Flint discover Jayden after he crash-lands, she’s ready to slit his throat without a second thought. But as Flint nurses him back to health, Nettle’s antipathy turns to empathy, and then an unwanted attraction.

Jayden, meanwhile, has made secret plans to escape on a Masu, one of the giant flying cats the rebels ride, but though his blood family still need him, the lure of the valley might just prove stronger.

In this action-packed and visionary novella, the mystical connection to nature of Avatar, the romantic tension of Outlander, the dystopian political struggle of The Hunger Games, and the character evolution of Ender's Game all meet. It's a perfect read for teens and adults who enjoy spiritual elements and clean enemies-to-lovers romance in a high-stakes futuristic setting.
