Mistaken

Mistaken Series, Book 1

De: Pixie Unger

Narrado por: Marguerite Gavin

A few years ago, there was an invasion.

Hordes of tall, grey aliens with tusks arrived in spaceships the size of cities. Before the news channels went dark, humans named the creatures orcs.

The human armies fought and failed. War crimes were committed on both sides. Eventually, when food supplies failed, society collapsed and the government was overthrown. Humans turned on each other. Nowhere was safe. The orcs rounded up the survivors and locked them away in refugee camps. In the fullness of time, some women had little grey babies.

In a field that had been repurposed as a prison, Kari watched a screaming, cursing woman give birth to Max. Afterwards, the woman shakily got to her feet and left him there to die - alone and unwanted. Even if he was only half human, and Kari was living as a conquered species in one of the many refugee camps on Earth, none of that was his fault. He was just a baby. She couldn’t bring herself to leave him there. So she adopted him.

Max wasn’t the only grey child in the place. Kari and the others raising grey children had formed their own family group, which was eventually noticed. Suddenly, they were assigned orc fathers and taken from the camp where they had been living. This asshole may be the official father, but, as far as Kari is concerned, if he thinks that means he's part of their family, he is mistaken. One way or another, Kari has to figure out how to make this work. Her son needs her to keep him safe.

When part of her extended family is brought to her new home, she has a couple of allies. Kari slowly starts to understand that maybe the orcs aren’t as monstrous as they seem. She will have to face her past and come to terms with her new reality before she can face her future.

Actually a great book and worth listening

Great world building with a new take on an Alien invasion! This is like the introduction book to how these guys think and book two just brings more to the table. I actually read the second book first and then the first one. Refreshing and totally interesting! Read book two also!

Okay read, completely awkward intimacy

I liked the story, but the female main character was so indecisive all the way until the very end. It made any kind of intimacy so awkward and annoying. Either she's crying or whining over who knows what half the time, honestly I would have just left her by the end of the story. The kids were super cute though and the narrator did a good job for a single narration audio. Although I wouldn't want to re-read this one because of that redundant crying to whining thing the FMC likes to do. It just annoyed the crap out of me how often this went on with only a 7 hour read.

Excellent Book!

Great book with outstanding character development. The author really understands abuse survivor struggles. The narrator is excellent. Can't wait to listen to the next one.

need more action but good story

it was a very good story. I loved all the characters it was very humorous. the narrator was fantastic at it. but we need to get a little more into the romance part.

Torn

Gave the overall book a 4 only because the main female character was annoying. Seemed like she complained all the time. it drove me nuts if it hadn't been for the the other characters I would of tossed it. It was a very good story. I hope the author writes more. I would recommend to others readers.

Excellent

Awesome story. Amazing narrative. Great characters and story line. Can't wait for the next one to be added to Audible. I read the next one on my kindle it was amazing. So my fingers are crossed for it be added here soon. Highly recommend. If you are a fan of this genre you will not be disappointed!

Remarks on Mistaken

I really liked the way the author kept the story moving with the witty characters diversity. Great reading, I look forward to more stories about the space orcs.

A learning how to love story ❤️❤️

Truly enjoyed the story, it’s shows the growth of trust,glove and patience.
I definitely want to read or hear the next audiobook ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Enjoyed this.

This book was unique. I read a lot of pnr and sci fi romance, and this was different. i enjoyed it quite a bit. The narrator was great at emoting of the characters.

it is as ok

it was missing something needed to have more adventure drama define characters. it was a good story but needed a little more action maybe.
