Tabitha is a good author and she brings it all to life. What will happen on Horizon. Will the commander and Caeli get together and help save the crew, and find love in each other? She happy to work on the ship in where she loves working.
We go on adventures through inner space and what life is like on Horizon. Will they all survive or not? I enjoyed this book from the first page to the last page. I cannot wait to start the second book that I do have in this series. The author has done wonderfully with it. There are surprises throughout the book and some romance as well.
I believe this book is good for though science fiction but also I would suggest teens read it from the age of 14 and up. The parent has the right to decide. It being rated PG 13 so it would be okay for 13 years old if you the parent this your child or children are mature enough for the book. That is up to you.… (mere)

Lindz2012 | 2 andre anmeldelser | Aug 11, 2017 | Horizon by Tabitha Lord is the first in a series, of at least one more book, and ends with a cliffhanger. While it is a sci-fi story, it is also heavy on the romance but nothing sappy (thankfully). Actually, the romantic scenes were well done and therefore nothing for me to quibble about.
The story opens from Caeli Crys’s point of view as a ship crashes on her planet. She is empathetic and she feels the terror of the crew in the moments before the actual crash. When she goes to investigate she finds that, of the two people on board, only one has survived, Commander Derek Markham. As empathetic, Caeli possesses the skill to heal with her mind and she quickly sets about saving Derek’s life.
When Derek awakens he finds he is now stranded on this alien world and that Caeli, his savior, is running for her life. As he heals, with the help of Caeli’s abilities, he learns of the tragedy that has befallen her people. Derek hopes that the command ship Horizon will get the distress call he sent just before the crash and that Caeli will come with him. When the ship finally arrives to rescue him he has already fallen for Caeli and convinces her to leave with him.
Of course, the world Derek lives in is totally foreign to Caeli and just as dangerous, if not more, than the one she left behind. She will be called upon to do things that go against her basic beliefs in order to prevent a tragedy like the one that befell her own people. She will have to decide if the end justifies the means.
The world building, at least as far as Caeli is concerned, was excellent. There is plenty of backstory so I was able to have that deep connection with Caeli. I can’t say the same for Derek. Hopefully the next book will flesh out his character and world. The plot moved along at a nice pace and there where not any big surprises other than the cliffhanger I have already mentioned.
The story is not hard core Sci-Fi; therefore, it may be a disappointment to those fans. However, as an eclectic reader, I liked it. I believe, since it is not hard core Sci-Fi it will appeal to a larger reading audience. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance with a twist and light sci-fi.
I received a free copy in exchange for my honest review.

The Alliance has discovered that Marcus is involved in human trafficking of the Novali people, who are empathic, as a means to purchase advanced technology. The planet is vulnerable to falling into the hands of the Alliance’s enemies who would love to use the Novali as a weapon in the war against the Alliance. Since Almagest is not a member planet, the Alliance is almost powerless to prevent this from happening hence the mission. Once a democratic government is installed, Almagest can then apply for membership in the Alliance.
Once Caeli and Derek, along with a small elite team from the Horizon, arrive on the planet they find a small pocket of resistance fighters hiding in the wild evading Marcus’s attempts to capture them and quell the resistance once and for all. They start working with the resistance fighters to free Novali prisoners with the ultimate goal of overthrowing Marcus. A plan is devised that requires Derek to go undercover as a mercenary and setup a trade of technology for the prisoners. It is not long before things go awry and the resistance must depend on the ordinary citizens to assist in over throwing the dictatorship.
The plot is not new by any means, but it is timeless. Humanity will always struggle against individuals who try to use fear and violence to force their idea of a perfect world onto others. It seems like we as a human race are destined to always struggle with the Machiavellian idea of, “Does might make right?”
I really liked the first book, but I loved this one, mainly because the book spent almost the entire time on the world of Almagest. There is plenty of action to move the plot along nicely. Since I already knew so much about the main characters I was invested in the story from the beginning. I also liked that we find out how the Novali people came to be. In a nut shell, Infinity ticks all the boxes for me. It is a skilled and, thoughtfully done Sci-Fi story. I look forward to the next book in this series, especially since we get a hint at the very end of what is to come.
