To Read Tuesday: Facsimile by Vicki L. Weavil
I’m not always a scifi fan, at least in books, but this one looks pretty spectacular. I enjoy the idea of humans living elsewhere, fighting for tickets to Earth, and danger lurking just around the corner. The description looks pretty awesome, so I can’t wait to see what happens!
Facsimile – Vicki L. Weavil
For a ticket to Earth, seventeen-year-old Anna-Maria “Ann” Solano is willing to jettison her birth planet, best friend, and the boy who loves her. Especially since all she’s required to do is escort Dace Keeling, a young naturalist, through the wilderness of the partially terraformed planet Eco. Ann‘s determination to escape the limitations of her small, frontier colony never falters, until Dace’s expeditions uncover three secrets. One offers riches, one shatters Ann’s perceptions of herself, and one reveals that the humans stranded on Eco are not its only inhabitants.
Ann’s willing to sacrifice friendship and love for a new life on Earth. But when an entire species is placed in jeopardy by her actions, she must make a choice – fulfill the dream that’s always sustained her, or save the planet she’s never considered home.
