Gr 10 Up—The Asherah, a spaceship that left Earth 500 years ago in search of an alternate planet, has finally landed on Zehava. Seventeen-year-old Terra and her friends must put aside their animosity toward rebel leader Aleksandra Wolff to contend against a new enemy: their dangerous alien hosts. This second book brings the romantic, scifi duology to a satisfying close.
Terra (Starglass) escapes the rebellion on Ashera in a stolen shuttle to explore their destination: the unexpectedly inhabited planet of Zehava. Her mysterious psychic connection to alien Vadix puts her in the center of negotiations between the colonists and the planet's plantlike inhabitants. Lush world-building and a compelling romance bring this science fiction duology to a thoroughly satisfying conclusion.
