Publisher's summary

You have glioblastoma, an incurable brain cancer, and have less than a month to live. What price would you be willing to pay for a cure?

Any price? Are you sure?

Would it be worth agreeing to join an alien nation offering a cure but without any of the messy details like:

  • Who and what are the aliens
  • Proof they can cure you
  • Why they want people from Earth
  • The alien's specific needs
  • What they expect from those they cure

And knowing you will never see Earth again.

Kayla, a 17-year-old teenager, and others with an assortment of lethal medical conditions are about to find out the price of life.

How does CR Daems Do It?

Some of the book one back stories develop slowly at the beginning for his series yet, each time after a few chapters., CR Daems persuades me that he's the best Sci-fi character developing author I've read since I devoured all of Robert A. Heinlein's books many years ago.

Alien Abduction

I really enjoy the story. I like the idea of people bettering themselves into different jobs in professions in an alien world. And the only thing I’m not a fan of is the main character is similar to the authors, other main characters in their other series. I’m also not a fan of the cadence of the reader. It’s a little choppy. Overall, I would definitely read again.

YA scifi

The story is simplistic. The science is ... well example a cruiser does a vertical loop in .... space.. and things fall and hurt people. only in the vertical loop no other maneuvers like they are in 2d gravity well battle.

What good is a audio book that stops at 51%.

Was really enjoying this story.. Then the audio book kicked off.. Had to buy and read to the end.. Amazon Audio is the biggest rip off and waste of money.. The book is better
