About this ebook

Enslaved on an uninhabited planet by the alien Eosi, Kristin Bjornsen and her fellow humans not only survived against all odds to colonize the world now known as Botany, but liberated themselves from their captors and claimed it as their home…
 
The colonists could not have achieved victory without the help of the exiled Catteni alien, Zainal, who helped Kris contact other races subjugated by the Eosi, and inspired the rebellion that freed them all. To ensure Botany’s future, its people must build alliances.
 
In the wake of alien devastation, Earth has been looted of its technology—technology Botany desperately needs. If Kris and Zainal can reclaim the stolen goods, they can assist Earth while setting a foundation for Botany’s place in the universe…
 

 

Ratings and reviews

Loved all four installments of the Freedom series. Anne did it again. She took me away to another place and time. I longed to be a visitor to Botany. I only wish that there could have been even more books in this series. I shall have to rely on my own imagination to continue the story in my own thoughts.

Fun continuation of a promising series but not as well written as prior books and was clearly lacking a decent copy editor.

Not my favorite of the series, but a nice way to close it up.
