Obviously Tori is his complete opposite and is also more tactile in nature.Ĭonfused, slightly disgusted and horrified when he initially realises he is drawn to Tori Aderus tries to keep his distance. Their own females are highly aggressive more so than the males so she is also an anomaly in that way.Īderus himself, like all his kind, is solitary, stoic, unemotional disliking physical touch. So I adored the pure alienness of the story, Aderus initially finds Tori completely unattractive and strange-looking not just in appearance but also in temperament. Tori is chosen by the aliens to be their liaison when the two species make an alliance. So this story revolves around Tori who is a human Doctor stationed on a Research ship orbiting the earth and Aderus a Demon like species of alien whose ship they encounter. I have a thing for real aliens that actually seem and act different and this had that in spades. I've been meaning to get round to this book for a while and let me tell you it definitely didn't disappoint loved it. What a gem this was, Saving Askara actually took me completely by surprise and blew me away with how much I enjoyed it. WARNING: Not intended for readers under 18. *Saving Askara is a Part I of II* Book II coming Summer 2018
But the more he learns of humans, the more he comes to admire and respect them. Earth's proposal is shocking and uncomfortable for a fierce, independent race that relishes in their solitude. When it affords them an unforseen and unprecedented opportunity to take back their world from those who seek to destroy them, however, Aderus begins to wonder if it wasn't fate. Forced to interact with an isolated world and its inferior, albeit curious people. But they never thought their flight for freedom would put them in an uncharted system. But all that changes one morning, and suddenly she's not so sure she didn't stick her foot in it.Įscape had been their only drive, and even death was preferable to the alternative. That's what it took to run a ship the size of a small city smoothly. Who wouldn't? She was still happy with her career, however mundane and demanding it might be. Sure, she had always dreamed of interacting with intelligent extraterrestrial life- the real thing, not those microbes on distant moons.
Such is the life of an emergency medicine specialist in the age of "post-discovery". Victoria's day starts out like any other aboard the transorbital ship, Phoenix.
