Freedom's Landing - Anne McCaffrey (Catteni Series Book 1)


Do I love Anne McCaffrey?  Yes.  She is one of my favorite authors.  Like one of my first favorites so she holds a special place for me.  And Freedom's Landing series and Crystal Singer series just keep me coming back again and again and again.

Forgive me but I have to quote the back of the book:

"Kristin Bjornsen lived a normal life, right up until the day the spaceships floated into view above Denver. As human slaves were herded into the maw of a massive vessel, Kristin realized her normal life was over and her fight for freedom was just beginning…

The alien Catteni value strength and intelligence in their slaves—and Kristin has managed to survive her enslavement while hundreds of other humans have not. But her trial has just begun, for now she finds herself part of a massive experiment. The aliens have discovered a new world, and they have a simple way of finding out if it’s habitable: drop hundreds of slaves on the surface and see what happens.

If they survive, colonization can begin. If not, there are always more slaves"

This series has four books in it and I'm not going to review all four but I will say that it is so worth it to read them.  Kris is spunky, lively and a fighter.  And once again Anne McCaffrey creates a world that you can envision easily and it's gorgeous.
