Aggressor Queen, Book 2

By: Davyne DeSye

Narrated by: Davyne DeSye

Earth is in danger… again!

Having repelled the alien invaders, Earth once more belongs to humans. On Earth, the few remaining humans struggle to rebuild. Off Earth, the human ambassador, Khara, leads the mission to establish interplanetary trade with the peaceful Alliance. Progress and prosperity seem assured.

When Khara is attacked during an off-planet mission, she believes it to be an isolated incident… until she learns of the secret abductions of humans from Earth.

Now, as an unknown force sabotages the human seat in the Alliance, the abductions and attacks on Earth escalate, and an assassin hunts Khara, it is once again up to Khara and a small band of humans to fight for survival of the human race. Still weakened and recovering from the previous invasion, will they be able to pass the ultimate test and prove their right to existence?

This exciting sci-fi adventure plunges the reader into a deeply personal story of struggle and perseverance in the face of unsurmountable obstacles – thrilling from beginning to end! ©2024 Davyne DeSye (P)2024 Davyne DeSye

Better Performance Simplistic Premise

This is the second book of the series ... and as noted with my review of the first, this just did not work for me at all; however, it is worth noting several improvements. First, the narration is much better, making much easier to distinguish which character is talk (with a few irritating quarks for the aliens, but I would rather suffer those than not have the differentiation). This story itself is less course and physically gross for me as well ... but the overall premise of a competition/game for entry into some form of an interstellar community/society is way too simplistic and unbelievable. Pacing is still slow and there is a lot of relationship drama that did nothing for me, but YMMV. Over all, while better, is not enough so for me to continue with the series.

I was given this free advance review/listener copy (ARC) audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
