Description

In the second installment of the award-winning Horizon series, Dr. Caeli Crys returns to her war-torn world to fight for those she left behind.

Almagest, Caeli’s home, stands on the brink of revolution. Long hidden from the rest of the galaxy, the once-peaceful planet suffers under a regime that grows more violent and oppressive by the day. Marcus, Almagest’s dictator, is building an arsenal of alien weaponry by selling empathic children into slavery. A resistance has risen, but they are outmanned, outgunned, and in hiding.

Joined by Commander Derek Markham and his elite squadron of operatives, Caeli embarks on a dangerous mission to find the Resistance, rescue her captive people, and save her civilization from destruction.

My Review

I chose to read this book after receiving a free e-copy. All opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased. I had read the first book in this series, Horizon, and was looking forward to reading this one.

As I had hoped, Derek and Caeli return to the planet Almagest with a team. It was discovered that Marcus, the leader of Almagest, has started trading Novali children to other planets. So, unofficially, the Alliance has sent the team to help the resistance.

The members of the resistance have been through a lot but they’re strong and determined and with the team from the Alliance, they’re hoping things might turn around. It really doesn’t look promising but they work with what they have. There’s a lot of suspense especially when members of the resistance go into town for one reason or another. 

One thing that kept running through my mind as I read Infinity was what if they are successful at overthrowing Marcus and beginning a new stable government? What will Derek and Caeli do? I couldn’t believe that Caeli would leave her home again but, on the other hand, how could Derek give up his position?

Infinity is full of action, drama, and love. I like Tabitha’s writing style and look forward to reading the next book in the series.
