The Star and the Stellae is a gripping tale about an eerie science fiction future where humans are on a floating city in space and are watched and controlled.Author C. A. Nole takes us on a wild ride through love, mystery, science, and the struggle for freedom. Immediately we are intrigued as Janus explains his current situation and the fact that he killed his best friend that day, mix that with a vat of acid and a gunshot hole in his hand and we are off to an exciting beginning. We are then led into what led to his situation and what he is trying to accomplish. The relationship between Diana and Vesta is intense and potentially dangerous. Vesta risks everything to try to take down the Stellae and Diana must decide whether or not to join her. Janus is thrown into the mix as he is developing a way to destroy the Stellae.Nole guides us expertly through his vision. We are able to clearly see the characters, the situations, and the world in which they live. The suspense mounts and my interest held piqued as I awaited the brilliant finale. I highly recommend it!
