He stayed as still as a statue. If his antennae were not moving, I would have believed that he was one. Then my stomach decided that it was a good time to loudly growl. It finally made him move, bringing his head down to stare at my abdomen. At least I thought he was. It was hard to tell when his eyes were black and fixed. He started humming again, the noise causing his throat to vibrate. None of the women aboard the Earhart 4500 have ever seen a male before, not to mention one with wings.

Aria must figure out how to get this uncivilized male to return her to her ship before this dangerous world kills them all.

    Scarlett's Reading Team*Selene Jordan is alone in the universe. Whisked away from Earth by unscrupulous aliens bent on selling her to the highest bidder, she’s shuffled from one freighter to another on her way to a distant mining colony. Each ship is much like the last, with only the faces of her captors changing. Just when she thinks she’ll go mad from staring at the four walls, something incredible happens. The aliens have somehow learned her language. Now the strange alien king who’s been haunting her every step by holo-vid is asking about her reproductive capabilities.That’s reason enough to risk everything on one last escape attempt. She’s tried a half dozen times over the last two years, but this is the one that really counts. Giving the tri-pedal reptilian species the slip proves to be only half the battle. It’s staying free, even as they mercilessly hunt her down that’s the real challenge.Life is hard, but Selene has a secret. One that just might damn her eternal soul. She’s got the hots for the strange alien king, only now he comes to her in her dreams instead of the holo-vid in her tiny room. She dare not let him capture her, lest she end up in the Riddiam mines. The radioactive rock is highly valued because it makes pretty much every engine in the galaxy turn. Shuddering, images of miners with their bald heads, gaunt eyes, and toothless smiles rise like a spectre taunting her. It was a bad way to go. Since she had no intention of rotting in a Riddiam mine or becoming the alien king’s newest concubine, she did the only thing she could. She kept on the move, staying in the shadows, scavenging to survive.

    Only one ship survived.It only survived because it found a vast swath of alien planets, all terraformed, all utterly abandoned. Alien megastructures cold and lifeless. Alien vehicles left in panicked lines, sealed from the inside, no corpses within. Empty space stations, with no one to run them but the dust. Resources everywhere, ripe for the taking.But Fortune is different. Of all the planets colonized by humans after the chaos of Migration, this single, jungle-infested colony on the very edge of the known universe holds the key to the alien collapse…and to humanity’s survival. Everywhere else, advanced alien ruins mar every surface, every planetoid, every debris ring and asteroid, but of the creatures that made them, there is no sign. On Fortune, something survives…Unfortunately for humanity, while time is running out, a rebellion is brewing, one that could save our species—or consign it to dust like the aliens that came before us. Now, seven hundred years after our first brush with extinction, the fate of the human race once again rests on the shoulders of a few: a seven-year-old sociopath and her combat-gifted big sister, a man who’s dreamed of the future, an infamous smuggler, and a Coalition pilot sworn to destroy the rebel cause.This time, however, the stakes are higher. For lurking on Fortune is a secret.An epic, post-apocalyptic science fiction adventure that will make you hold your breath, cry, curse the powers that be, and in the end question what, exactly, it means to be human. *FOR CURRENT FANS OF THE OUTER BOUNDS SERIES: This is the THIRD edition of Outer Bounds 1: Fortune's Rising.

    They lied to us. They changed us. They hurt us. They controlled us. The government used us to improve the human genome through gene modification. Earth was dying and they needed the humans to be stronger, faster, and harder to kill while traveling through space in their search for a new home. Then they took it even further when an alien species called the Koci were shot down right before the last Exodus ships were scheduled to leave. What they didn't count on was our determination to win back our minds and bodies. We have awakened, now it is time to take back our freedom.
