Review: Cari and Scaden: A very assertive couple
Rating: 5 out of 5

Scaden patrols the area in a spaceship, bored to tears, when he is told about a distress signal from earth. Nobody has an idea about how this is possible since there were no people of their planet there. After a little review of their history, they decide to go and arrive just after Cari was kidnapped by the Relians, a race of very bad aliens.As can be inferred from the synopsis, Scaden rescues Cari and then the couple struggles to stay together. The work betrayed is a little strong but I will leave that to the reader.This is a great science fiction story with good and bad aliens and an assertive couple. I like the relationship between Cari and Scaden, they loved each other and fought to stay together regardless of politics and criticisms from friends and family. The female character was strong minded and the male character accepted her.I don’t believe that the ending had such a big cliffhanger. It was obvious from the time Cari and Jess met that there would be a second book for Jess. I did wait for the reason of the mating mark being revealed in this first book.An advice to the author: please speed up the writing process to keep us,readers, interested. More than six months between books may cause too much unease and grief!!
