Publisher's summary

For fans of Red Rising, Divergent, and of Brandon Sanderson's Skyward.

A futuristic alien world, supernatural abilities, an ancient conspiracy, and the power of love and friendship; a teenage girl's life changes when she is abducted from home and becomes the human race's last hope to survive a deadly illness.

Harper just wants to be a normal 17-year-old girl, playing soccer with her friends and going to school, not understanding why her mom keeps her inside, locked away from the outside world. But once Harper stumbles upon a mysterious glowing figure in the Nevada desert, a chain-of-events is triggered that will change her life forever.

As the world experiences a deadly pandemic, Harper is taken far from home and held captive in the Base of Ki: A massive dome with a sheening white city and fantastic technology controlled by beings from another solar system. Was this why her mom was so keen to protect her?

Now she must form alliances - and fast - if she has any hope of returning to Earth. Harper's about to learn who she can rely on and who her real friends are, embarking on a journey that will expose her to dangers she doesn't yet understand....

First published as Glow: Book one, Potency, now extensively rewritten, thanks to helpful feedback.

Fun, easy listening!

I listen to books while I run, this was a great one! It’s a fun story line with some interesting new sci fi twists. Cant wait for the second book! Why do you have to leave me hanging like that, author!? Please write quickly.

Not my cup of tea but enjoyable

I want to first say that I typically do not read books or watch movies that involve aliens because it's generally not my idea of a good time. this book however was written by an individual I went to school with and so of course I wanted to read it so that I could see the wonderful work that she did. The book overall was interesting I felt myself wanting to know what was going to happen next and therefore it did keep me involved. The readers performance was great even when having to perform alien-like voices I didn't find them hard to listen to. as with any book series I found myself wanting the conclusion towards the end and alas that never came. for someone who enjoys books about aliens I imagine this would be a wonderful ride.

Loved it!

I feel like this book could have gone on as long as the Harry Potter books and I would still be craving more. Please write a sequel!
