Defy the Stars by Claudia GrayMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow! I absolutely loved this YA space Sci-Fi. This story is exciting, fast-paced, and it has a well developed world--no--universe, that's embroiled in interstellar war. The storyline includes visits to several interesting planets, all with unique side characters.
The story is told from 2 POVs. One is a human girl, Noemi, a flyer sworn to protect her low-tech planet of Genesis by sacrificing her own life for the good of all. The other is a mech boy (artificial intelligence), created by a brilliant earthling. The mech has been stranded in space for 30 years, due to an unexpected chain of events. I won't say more, because spoilers, but the story is captivating from the first moment.
The audiobook is fantastic, with 2 readers, one for each POV.
