I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review.I read the Lodestone trilogy books and enjoyed all three. Since each books starts exactly where the last one ended, I don't understand why there was a need to write 3 separate books, unless it gave the author time to think of a continuing adventure.  The adventure takes place on a world other than earth. It is unique in that the main characters are what we would consider aliens and the bad guys are humans from earth.The books are filled with interesting characters, experiments with new technologies, numerous creatures and animals resembling earth's horses and camels. I just loved the main characters: Boxx, Keris, Alondo, Shann, Lyall and MaCann (a hu-man). Even the minor characters were described so vividly that you felt you knew them as well.The author has a very unique style that is very engaging, interesting, entertaining and captivating.  All the characters at times show all emotions that we can identify with. I did enjoy reading the trilogy and would probably read more from this author.What I didn't like about the books was the too many trails, tasks and near death adventures. It didn't seem possible that anyone could walk as far, use deductive reasoning, develop unique props as these characters did; although I'm glad I read the books.
