Ratings and reviews

5 books not four, three, two, or even one. The Gandmother was in the first one as a child growing up almost alone as a word of the planet her family tried to mine for a living until all died but her. She as a child was buried in a hopper cart the manager let them use due to the Rain. She had white hair is siting in a seat with her bare cat standing next to the chair on the cover. Ann is that Arthur. It was a year before the second book came out. That was Damia. Please find the Ronan I want the whole set.

I was looking for the Rowen instead I Got a first for. Me The Star League Which reminds of all Asperin aliens Who's humor in solving problems makes me glad to be a reader.

An okay tie-up to the series. Glad to see how Thian and Gravy fared.
