This was an interesting book. It had an out of this world (pun intended) world that is built. It's made from scratch and in depth, full setting of this imaginary place.
The main character Janey was also someone who had some pretty good depth and it became easy to become a cheerleader for her success. She was smart, tough, loving towards her mother, and the reader also gets to see her flaws too.
Orlando Valdez, wow what a complex person he was. Interesting but he also kept not only Janey confused, he also had me wondering what his deal was.
Speaking of confusing, there were times that I was almost as confused as Janey as to what was going on. Don't get me wrong, it made the story even better for me.
I usually like my stories to have some romance in them and this one had two people off balance with each other. Oh, the attraction was there and some flirting with a promise of maybe more but that was it.
Everything comes to a good conclusion with a peek into the next book in the series.
One question that I didn't feel got answered was, what was going on with her enhancement? Still, it was such a well written story, I didn't hold that against the author.
By the way, I loved the cover for this eBook !
