Crownchasers

De: Rebecca Coffindaffer

Narrado por: Reba Buhr

A deadly race across 1,001 planets will determine more than just the fate of the empire. This explosive first book in a duology jam-packed with tension and thrills is perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Aurora Rising, and Three Dark Crowns.

Alyssa Farshot has spent her whole life trying to outrun her family legacy, even leaving behind the Kingship and her uncle, the emperor, for a life of exploring.

But when her dying uncle announces a crownchase - a search for the royal seal hidden in the empire that will determine the next ruler - Alyssa is thrust into her greatest, most dangerous adventure yet.

Feel in love with the characters instantly!

Captain Farshot is a strong narrator and the voice performance truly brought her to life!

A Sassy Captain We've All Been Waiting For

This book is great for fans of Aurora Rising and Once & Future in YA sci fi. A smart ass space captain, her mysterious but dedicated engineer and a fantastic cast of queer characters that are not defined by their queerness- but it is just a fact of their life. I enjoyed the nonlinear timeline and the use of flashbacks to provide context at the perfect time kept the world building understandable, despite how intricate and vast it was. The pictures Coffindaffer created are beautiful and I cannot wait to see where the sequel takes Alyssa, Hell Monkey and the rest.

OMG! Winning Entitlement

The story sort of started out interesting enough for me to continue but then she became very winy and the plot was predictable to a point of b boredom. Don’t think I will continue on to book 2 our of shear frustration with book 1.
