Atrophy by Jess Anastasi

5.0

Exciting, funny and romantic... I loved this book. It is a sci-fiction packed with action and intrigue. Story revolves around the crew of ship Imojenna and their captain is messed up war hero, Rian. Zahli is his little sister and he is a bit over-protective of her.

When the ship had to land on Erebus they picked up an unwanted guest. Tannin has been plotting his escape for a long time now. Even though he is scared of Rian's reputation and attracted to Zahli, still he plans to go throw with his escape.

Zahli finds him on their ship and she wants to help him too. Rian is not happy but because of his sister he lets the "scumrat" live. Things are quite interesting on this ship. I loved all the characters. Rian is my favorite character in this story. Story is fast paced and never gets boring. There is so much going on at all times. There is also a mystery about aliens and how they are trying to take over the universe. But Imojenna's crew is hell bent on preventing it. Not that it will be easy thing to do but with Rian's warrior skills, Tannin's hacking expertise and everyone else' determination the might just succeed. But we'll have to wait to read about how things go from here on wards...
