Skyhunter (Skyhunter Duology #01)
"A Quiet Place" meets "Attack on Titan" in this unputdownable, adrenaline-laced novel.
Strikers are loyal. With unparalleled, deadly fighting skills. With a willingness to do anything -- including sacrifice their own lives -- to defend Mara, the world's last free nation. But to the very people she protects, Talin is seen as an outcast first and a Striker second.
No matter what others think, Talin lets nothing distract her from keeping the evil Federation and its army of haunting, mutant beasts at bay. Until a mysterious prisoner shows up and disrupts Talin's entire world. Is he a spy? A product of the Federation's sinister experiments? The clock is ticking for Talin to unravel the prisoner's secrets and discover whether he's the weapon that will save -- or destroy -- them all.
Explore the chilling realities of war and the power of hope in SKYHUNTER, with slow burn romance and nonstop action that will have you racing to the end.
