To Avenge a Fallen Star is an absolutely immersive and fantastic debut!  Qilanna knocked it out of the park. I cannot wait for book two. 

Humans have fled Earth and currently reside within a new solar system. While most live a better life, some reside within a city full of injustice, crime, and poor living conditions. Their only way out? To survive deadly trials and serve in the military. Add in romance, revenge, a rebellion, a morally gray cast of characters and you have To Avenge a Fallen Star. 

UGH what can I even say? I was hooked within the first three chapters and could not put this story down. The plot is fast-paced so be prepared, a lot happens in the first book. I would describe this story as a palatable sci-fi with high stakes and a "I would burn it all for you" romance. Excuse me while I politely but impatiently wait for more from Qilanna!!!
