关于此电子书

Fourteen-year-old Diego only knows the rolling hills and pastures of his father’s ranch in 1829 California. But in the blink of an eye, his life is torn apart by an extraterrestrial invasion and he is captured by aliens, reptilian warriors. Diego is now a slave on a colossal spacecraft surrounded by technological advances beyond his comprehension. Stranded among the stars, unable to understand the strange language, Diego fights for his very survival and struggles to gain the respect of his extraterrestrial captors. Yet, when his new life threatens to overwhelm him, will he be able to unite his fellow slaves to fight a more deadly enemy or will he betray the trust of Ziron, the ship’s enigmatic commander? Can Diego reclaim his stolen freedom and find his way back to the home he once knew on Earth?

In this young adult science fiction adventure, join Diego on an extraordinary journey of courage, loyalty, and the resilience of the human spirit. Will he conquer the stars or become lost in their vast, unforgiving expanse?

Winner of the Royal Palm Literary Bronze Award, 2021 (Florida) and the Oklahoma Writers Federation, Juvenile Gold Award, 2021.

作者简介

Susan Kite was born in Indiana, but because her father was in the Army, she moved extensively during her growing up years. The post library was the first place she found after a move, avidly reading fantasy, science fiction, and many other genres. In her teens, she dabbled in writing, creating stories based on characters from her favorite TV shows. With college and marriage, writing was mostly put on hold.

That changed more than twenty years ago when the writing bug bit again. For a decade, fan fiction was the main focus, but this provided practice and helped develop skills needed to write original works. A visit to the Mission San Luis Rey in California in 2001 and subsequent research became the catalyst to write her first novel, My House of Dreams. The Mendel Experiment, and its sequels, Blue Fire, and Power Stone of Alogol, were published by World Castle.

The author earned her Bachelor’s degree in secondary English and followed that up with a Master’s degree in Instructional Media at Utah State University. She worked in public school libraries for 35 years, most recently in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Now retired, Ms. Kite lives in Oklahoma City. She has been married to the love of her life, Daniel, for over 40 years. They have two children and seven grandchildren and are owned by an opinionated chiweenie-terrier.
