Description
What if your dreams were psychic instruction, sending you on an epic journey that might prevent the collapse of your entire civilization?
This is what happens to Mellinar, a reluctant teenager, who subsequently is sent back from another solar system to Earth to fulfill an ancient, enigmatic prophecy. She returns to her star federation accompanied by a mysterious shape-shifting mentor and a young male Earthling whose fate is linked with hers. They must carefully avoid detection by ruthless members of the ruling class, while visiting diverse star ships as they attempt to shift the balance of power in a new, more promising direction. Along the way they discover rogue ships and plots for revolution.

This is quite good, but hasn't gotten much attention. It's interesting story that kept me engaged. The author has a good imagination, and uses it well here. Recommended.
Thanks very much for the free review copy!!

Mellinar is a teenager living on a spaceship. Mellinar due to her dreams may be the emissary that was foretold. She is given tests to take to see if is by the administration council. She passes the tests. There is debate if she should go back to earth. Mellinar doesn’t know what to think and yet she knows she must, How does she know? She is trained by an expert in survival techniques. They travel back to earth on a merchant ship. Once they arrived, they start to learn about earth. Mellinar has never lived on earth so it amazes her. When her mentor is on a cliff that collapses he is killed. Mellinar is scared to be alone on earth. Yet she bravely goes on. What will happen to her? Will she survive?
In this novel, people escaped earth via spaceships. Earth had become polluted and toxic to the human race. I found myself following Mellinar on her journey. Mellinar is a fascinating person as she learns so much about earth. I enjoyed seeing her inner and outer self growing in wisdom and knowledge. It’s a fantastic novel to read. I would recommend it to anyone to read.
