Tsurk and his team are sent to the ruins of new Rio to hunt for survivors what they dont expect to find is a psionic human female and a bunch of reapers who are being controlled by a gross brain in a fish tank… this book is full of great emotions, adventures and hope. as well as plenty of steam.

Goodness me, this book has so many twists and turns that kept me reading it, l couldn’t put it down. Tsurk is a Soldier of Hope Camp and rescues Regan when he goes on a mission to New Rio. Regan has a past that she’d rather not remember, this comes back to haunt her though! The Reapers also appear but all is not as it seems! An excellent book.

Tsurk is back with a new eye, Syth has a new leg and Gar is his old sneaky self. The guys have a new mission to rescue some kids who are stranded in the city and hiding out from Reapers. They find the kids but have problems getting them safely away, and Tsurk is stranded and injured. Regan is a human who has been stranded on Armstrong. She has some… enhancements that are crippling her ability to see what’s real. And there’s Reapers after them.
This is an exciting tale of love and great sorrow. Minimal Reaper content, thank goodness!
This is a wonderful sci-fi romance! I really liked it… It is emotional and romantic, exciting and full of adventure..

In 2338 year of the war. tsurk a odex on Armstrong is a warrior that got hurt and Dr Faith helps him now to repay her tsurk and his team go back to the ruins of new rio to collect the refugees, but their their is more there and Regan finds him between the two he find love and she finds hope. This was a beautiful story and each story in this series of books you get to know each character and what case they are fighting for.
She must be into cartoons and comics. Tsurk reminds me of Beast from X-man, the main evil bad guy reminds me of a TMNT villian. Fun, interesting, engaging story. Very descriptive and original. I look forward to reading more of this world.

I liked the chemistry between the main characters, Reagan and Tsurk. She had given up on hope and he made her believe in it again. I enjoyed reading this story. My only issue was the prologue, and it was hrad to follow of you haven’t read the previous books. The rest of the book is a great read.

An increasing group of refugees, named themselves Soldiers of Hope, were banding together and pooling their recurses to escape the war. Tsurk had a noble and good heart ready to sacrifice for others despite what others think about the Odex. Leading a mission requires responsibility and Tsurk assumed it getting caught in a risky and almost deadly situation. Used and abused Regan had lost all hope and only was waiting for a quick dead, but alone and despaired, she found something that stirred her emotions. Using powers that had been forced upon her she would be beside Tsurk all the way in their fight against the Reapers’ threat. Interesting the dynamic between this dangerous woman and the gentlemanly Odex. Liked how the characters were portrayed each one trying to cope with their feelings and emotions while helping others. A story with a short fuse woman struggling with her reality, a strong chemistry between the protagonists, hot passion, suspense, strange and different enemies, intriguing plot development, violence and at the end … some hope. Voluntarily reviewed this well writing, interesting, intriguing and entertaining story that I enjoyed
