About this ebook
SciFi aficionado, Avery Blake, and sorceress of suspense, Ninie Hammon, team up to bring you the first book in The Taken Saga, a terrifying tale of alien invasion told from the perspective of three very special young people.
Although they’ve never met, Star, Noah, and Paco have been dreaming about each other for years, each never sure that the others exist — until all three children start sharing dreams of invading aliens.
When the alien ships are spotted, six days from Earth, society quickly descends into brutal chaos.
Star, in New Mexico, is blamed for summoning the aliens to exact revenge for the Roswell crash.
Noah, in Kentucky, discovers that a terror-stricken scientist intends to kill Noah and his classmates, to save them from the atrocities of a war with the aliens.
And Paco, in California, is forced to play a deadly game of hide-and-seek in a maximum-security prison when the alien invasion interrupts Scared Straight Day.
When these three children are taken, will their strange psychic bond help them survive what happens next?

About the author
Avery Blake doesn’t want you to know where she lives, or what she does. She travels the world, moving from place to place quickly to ensure she can’t be tracked. It’s safer that way.
When she’s not looking over her shoulder, you can find her in the corner of a cafe, facing the exit, typing as fast as she can.
Ninie Hammon (rhymes with shiny, not skinny) grew up in Muleshoe, Texas, got a BA in English and theatre from Texas Tech University and snagged a job as a newspaper reporter. She didn't know a thing about journalism, but her editor said if she could write he could teach her the rest of it and if she couldn't write the rest of it didn't matter. She hung in there for a 25-year career as a journalist. As soon as she figured out that making up the facts was a whole lot more fun than reporting them, she turned to fiction and never looked back.
Ninie now writes suspense--every flavor except pistachio: psychological suspense, inspirational suspense, suspense thrillers, paranormal suspense, suspense mysteries.
In every book she keeps this promise to her Loyal Reader: "I will tell you a story in a distinctive voice you'll always recognize, about people as ordinary as you are--people who have been slammed by something they didn’t sign on for, and now they must fight for their lives. Then smack in the middle of their everyday worlds, those people encounter the unexplainable--and it's always the game-changer."
