Synopsis

"Why are you doing this?"

"Doing what?"

"Helping these people. Non-citizens. You don't owe them anything. You had a life back in the Dome you could've escaped back to, been protected by your uncle. Why do any of this?"

"None of this would've happened if it wasn't for my mother, right? I can't just walk away from it, can I?"

Life is a paradise for the privileged on Odin Prime. Dr. Shea Tristan, a loyal Statesman and Chancellor's niece, learns firsthand how broken the state is when she falls into the hands of Shadow—the station's most dangerous criminal organization. A disgraced Valkyrie named Victoria Hammond and an emerging threat among the station's most vulnerable force Shea to confront her mother's shameful past. Shea will question everything she knows about herself, her notorious family, and the state that once protected her.

About Meg Ludwa

Meg Ludwa knew she wanted to be a writer ever since she wrote fan fiction in her middle school notebooks. She has spent the last twenty years daydreaming and writing bits of fiction until deciding to write her first novel, Valkyrie, in 2015.

Meg is from Cleveland, Ohio, and majored in history with a minor in Asian studies at Bowling Green State University. She studied Japanese and spent one glorious year abroad in Hiroshima, Japan, in 2007. She also earned an MA in history from Texas A&M-Central Texas and a graduate certificate in cybersecurity technology from the University of Maryland Global Campus Europe. All this means is that Meg is a huge history and computer nerd with a few expensive pieces of paper.

Meg currently lives with her wife, Rachel, and their two cats-Anakin and Padme.

Strikingly good, wish there was more It's not often that I get embroiled in a sci fi plot. Sure, I love the genre and sure, there are good stories out there, but stories that keep my attention for hours on end? Rare as ever they come. I'm just easily distracted, but not with this lovely book. No. Valk......more

Goodreads review by Misago on October 22, 2020

A decent book with an enjoyable story and good main characters. There was a bit of an abundance of characters explaining plans and ideas, some more show don't tell would have done good here. Similarly, feelings and connections in topics didnt need to be pointed out. I liked the main relationship, and......more

Goodreads review by Ban on February 11, 2021

What a ride. This never got boring and I couldn’t stop thinking about the book whenever I wasn’t reading. My heart hurts for both Shea, Victoria (mostly her) and Simon for everything that happened. And with that ending? I desperately need the next book. Loved it.......more
