Fate Born

Secrets of Sratta

By: Michelle L. Robison

Narrated by: Laura Lieben

In the year 3121, the planet Drammat rules its utopian galaxy with innovation and compassion. The graduates of the Grand Drammatan Academy are the writers of their society’s future.

As the youngest student ever admitted to the Academy, 16-year-old Aria Blake is on edge when her lifelong visions of a teenage boy named Luca become more frequent and intense just before the school year begins.

With mental illness being a thing of the past and a stigma for the rare few who still face it, she’s forced to hide the truth or risk losing everything she's worked for.

When she runs into Luca, alive and in the flesh, at the Academy orientation, her whole world is flipped upside down. It's immediately clear that Luca has secrets of his own, but Aria feels an instant, almost supernatural connection to him. When he eventually opens up to her about his past on Earth - something that should be impossible - Aria learns that Drammat isn't as benevolent as it leads its citizens to believe.

Luca begs Aria to keep his secret to protect both of their lives, but when they uncover a heinous plot on an Academy field trip to the frozen planet Sratta, they must choose between protecting themselves and saving thousands of innocent lives.

Secrets of Sratta is the first installment of The Fate Born Tetralogy, a sci-fi coming-of-age adventure about family, friendship, first love, and finding yourself as you rise to the challenge in extraordinary circumstances.

Fate Born is for readers of The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer, The Pillars of Reality Series by Jack Campbell, the Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth, the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown, and The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins.

Caught my attention and held it!

Loved the connection of the main characters and thought the story line was unique and it kept my attention the whole time. I love an audio book and I devoured this one in just a few days. Excited for the next book!!

Can’t wait for book 2!

This is an AMAZING story, told very well. It covers mature, important topics in a way that’s kid-friendly and brings awareness to real life issues, and it’s a super fun read! The romance is clean but constantly present, the setting is well thought-out, the characters are realistic. I’m reading it again because I want more!

Great reader, Excellent writing

Loved this book! Couldn’t stop listening. It flowed well and kept my interest. Liked it so much I bought it for my teenage grandkids. Great for older teens and adults. It does touch on some tough topics but does not go into detail about them. Highly recommend!!!
