Synopsis:
"Space Mountain in book form, and it's fantastic."- San Francisco Book Reviews
When an agricultural country tries to survive a modern war, a powerful woman finds herself in a hopeless situation. People do not count on Queen Geneva to protect them from Emperor Pompey, the wicked gamer who's always one step ahead.
Things begin to change after the completion of the Starlight Fortress, a giant space structure that may be turned into their best weapon, if only Pompey would sit back and watch it happen. As the war evolves into a competition between old wisdom and advanced technology, Geneva can no longer tell friend from foe. Life itself is a battle, in which mistakes can be fatal and victories do not bring happiness.
Review:
I received a copy of The Starlight Fortress for a fair and honest review.
To be perfectly honest, I am not the biggest sci-fi reader there is. I can usually be found reading a thriller or a mystery novel, but Fiona Rawsontile's The Starlight Fortress may make a sci-fi reader out of me yet. I was intrigued by this book and the plot immediately pulled me in. Rawsontile write's beautifully and gave an interesting look into the future. I look forward to reading more of her work and I highly suggest this novel to all fantasy and sci-fi readers.
