An excellent series this. Mr Stavely has created a world totally believable. The characters strong and storyline that has you wanting more and more. This should be considered a mini series or take up where Game Of Thrones leaves us.

Experience the first Killashandra Ree adventure, in which the indomitable Killa overcomes disappointment in one career by diving into a much more exciting one. Filled with suspense, anguish, romance, and intrigue, this distinctive adventure is one of Anne McCaffrey's best.
