The Akseli

Aldebarian Alliance, Book 4

By: Dianne Duvall

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

Simone has hunted and slain psychotic vampires for hundreds of years and desperately needs a change. When the leader of the Immortal Guardians offers her an opportunity to guard ten mortal women who are venturing to another planet, she dives right in and finds traveling into space just as exciting as she'd hoped . . . until an enemy attacks. Simone saves everyone she can before she's thrust into an escape pod and the ship explodes.

Despite his fierce reputation and propensity for violating the law, Janwar has formed a friendship with strait-laced Prince Taelon of Lasara. When the prince's ship is destroyed, Janwar joins the Aldebarian Alliance-wide search and rescue mission and soon locates the Gathendien ship that launched the attack. Much to his surprise, someone else has reached the ship first: one of the very Earth women he hoped to rescue.

Fascinatingly fierce, Simone bands together with Janwar and his crew to search for her missing friends. The friendship that grows between Janwar and Simone deepens into love. But the enemy warriors they face boast more weapons in their arsenal than the alliance knows. Can Janwar, Simone, and such a small crew vanquish them?

Contains mature themes.

definitely a must listen to or read

as with all of Diane Duval stories I'd love this one I can't wait for the next one. the narrator is truly gifted there's just the right amount of excitement and suspense. and she's able to switch from male to female without fudging it.

Another amazing story!

Ms. Duvall is such a talented author. Her writing flows beautifully and paints a vivid picture in your mind's eye. The characters are full of depth and humor. The plot is well-developed and draws the reader into everything the characters experience. Romance is alive and well in this installment, and the sentiments elicited by the story are sweet and thoroughly enjoyable. Bravo, Ms. Duvall. I love Kirsten Potter's narration. Together, author and narrator make a fantastic team.

Captivating!

Get ready for a powerful, out of this world story! The Akseli is full of action, adventure, and a head strong heroine all will adore. Simone, an Immortal Guardian from Earth takes a first time journey into space and is jam-packed with unique trials, all while she maintains a fulfilling determination to keep her chin raised high through it all. Janwar is a space pirate set to rescue Simone and her brethren, only he isn't expecting all what Simone brings to the table. These characters are quick-witted, passionate, and know how to kick ass! My kind of fun!
