Fun and Entertaining,
By
This review is from: Hero: The Cat Star Chronicles, Book six (Mass Market Paperback)
Romance, genocide, revenge, and justice. All these mixed in with space travel, alien races, and steamy sex. It just doesn't get any better. Oh wait, I forgot to throw in the hot men. Yep, that about does it.Micayla has never fit in with her classmates, workmates or neighbours. Considering that she has cat-like eyes, pointed ears and she can purr, it's not surprising. The last thing her mother did before she was murdered was to give Micayla to a woman in spaceport and ask her to keep her baby safe. Since that time she has never met another member of her race, what ever that might be. While working as a communications officer on Orleon Station she catches a glimpse of man that she feels compelled to find. Who could he be and why does she feel she has to risk all to find him. Trag has been working as a pilot for several years and once again finds himself docking at Orleon Station. His shipmates have sent him to find "female" companionship even though he has publicly sworn to marry only when he finds a Zetithian female, knowing there are none left in existence. This was a funny and totally entertaining book. The love and denial between Micayla and Trag was almost predictable, though I couldn't imagine it happening any other way. I enjoyed watching both these characters develop and learn more about their earlier lives. This is the sixth book in the series and while I haven't read any of the earlier ones, Ms. Brooks did a great job of recapping and getting me up to speed with all the main characters especially Trag. Genocide, revenge and justice play major roles in the second half of the book. It's amazing the lengths that one man will go to to sooth his bruised ego. All I have to say to that character is grow up, look to your self for your faults, stop blaming them on others. As for the Zetithians, they take the highroad and show why I think that in future editions of this story they will have the strength to survive and possibly even thrive in what has until now been a hostile universe. I look forward to reading more about this race and finding out their earlier history. Note that this book contains material that is not appropriate for younger readers.

Another fun read.,
By Christie - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This series just gets better and better! Trag and Mick make a nice couple, and the obstacles they face keep things interesting. I especially liked how Brooks kept their romance front and center throughout the book. This was a romance with adventure thrown in, not a space adventure with a bit of love thrown in. I also liked how while there were bits with other characters in the story, they were kept short and didn't detract from the evolving relationship/friendship/intimacy between Trag and Mick. I really liked this story; learning more about Zetithians right along with Trag and Mick was fun. The world building also gets wider without being overwhelming. And the ending...well, you'll have to read for yourself...the next book can't come too quickly!On a side note, I read the Kindle edition, and it was 6916 locations long. The back cover of the paperback was the last page of the ebook, which was a nice touch I appreciated. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful

The Cat's Meow!,
By Denise Bolds "Lion Who Reads A Lot!" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hero: The Cat Star Chronicles, Book six (Mass Market Paperback)
Hero is great - a completely different story from all the others as Micayla doesnt fall all over Trag - their love grows in understanding and strength. The rest of the story is wonderfully carried by the other characters we met in the past stories. Still hot and fun! Can't wait for #7!

powerful Zetithian science fiction romance,
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hero: The Cat Star Chronicles, Book six (Mass Market Paperback)
Since his brother Tychar found his soul mate (see Rogue), Trag the Zetithian is depressed though he feels great for his sibling as he wants the same thing for himself. An outlaw on many planets, he is careful even when he offers to pay for sex; his talent insures he never has to remit any money as women find him to be the sexual encounter of a lifetime. Still he dreams of meeting a female especially from his now destroyed species, but fears no soulmate exists for him. He is especially despondent when he is with his few surviving male brethren (including his brother) as each has found their females.Micayla leaves her home world of Earth for the first time in her life. She feels lonely but accepts a truism that men or women don't turn her on and that somehow she is different than her family and friends. That changes in an instant gut changing observation of the back of a stranger who she finds desiring. However, when she meets the hunk who she wants, instead of jumping Trag's bones as her inclination screams inside her, she rips his skin off blaming him for her unwanted desire. While the overarching story line involving the pandemic destruction of a race and their planet moves forward with insight into who committed the atrocity, the latest Zetithian science fiction romance also contains the most powerful Cat Stars Chronicles coupling to date. That says a lot as previous tales like Fugitive, Rogue, and Slave are excellent. Readers will relish this pairing of two of the universe's loneliest people; as Micayla makes Trag dance the Macarena to snare his soulmate. Harriet Klausner |
