Life was more simple as a servant.I’m destined to work under the boot of the Gold Standard for the rest of my life, to pay the debt of my dead father’s addiction to the most violent competition in the galaxy. The competition I’m participating in right now.Everyone in my crew are servants. My best friend Devin and I obeyed the Totalitarian Corporation all of our lives.The balls on him! He got us … obeyed the Totalitarian Corporation all of our lives.
The balls on him! He got us in the tournament and picked up a sleek ship to command!
The other teams have more training, credits and are armed to the teeth with the most advanced tech the black markets have.
One contestant in the other team caught my interest. Galia. No man has ever made me feel the way she has.
But she’s such a reckless, gorgeous, pompous woman!
Even so, perhaps she can help us…
The only thing standing between us and freedom are six gruelling, fatal challenges and even more bloodthirsty crews battling for the glory of Olympia.
If we fail, the Corporation will destroy us.
The odds are high, but I never felt so strongly about anything else.
Is my will to survive enough to see us through?

Received as a review copy, this is an honest review. An enthralling combination of Hunger Games and Maze Runner set against the beauty of a science fiction background. The competition of Olympia is a grueling quest for freedom from servitude and the abuse of the Corporation. There’s nothing left to lose… with so much to gain if you’re the winner. Highly recommended.

This is a very well written story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. It has a ton of action and a world build that is awesome. The characters are well defined and intriguing, the battles are fought and the ending will surprise you. All in all, a very good novel and I can’t wait to see what’s next from Kennedy.
A gritty and compelling survival tale about human courage and steadfast determination to live, to endure, and to persevere against all odds. I was even more connected to the characters- she really made them come to life. Tons of page-turning suspense! This was a great story with exciting characters, lots of action, unexpected twists, and a thrilling ending.
The announcer welcomed the audience back to the thirty-sixth Olympia Gold! There was a giant pit into which combatants will plummet through one side of Ares to the other with artificial gravity moving them six hundred miles through the planet to a stabilization field on the other side! This is the longest freefall in the galaxy, opponents battling all the way down — and, if the team survives, they get to move to round 2! Jonas Benier was one of the combatants, fighting his way through the pit, trying to focus on what was happening. He spotted Kayn and asked her how many were left, to which she responded that it was just the two of them. Then with a calm smirk she snapped a club across his face and everything went black for Jonas.
This violent competition will keep the reader’s attention from the very start of the book! There is so much happening that it is difficult to track all the competitors. When Captain Galia Hattel of the ship Dreamweaver and her crew arrive, their goal is to go after all of the other crews that enter the games. Galia and Deidra, a servant working for the Gold Standard to pay off her father’s debt, team up – now they need to get through six of the toughest fatal challenges and the six other competing crews to uncover the Gold Standard’s secrets that must be unearthed for the two of them to survive.
This was not an easy book to get into. But it definitely was exciting with lots of continuous action. Stick with it and it starts to make sense. Even better, you will probably really like it!
