Heirs of Empire by Evan Currie
4.0
Likes:
+ Interesting idea. A mix of fantasy and sf. There are castles, nobles, empire in peril. But there is futuristic technology also. Reminded me of 'Star Wars'.
+ Twin siblings. Loved how they develop from spoiled royalties to survivors and how they used all 'stupid' things the teachers thought them to stay alive.
+ Awesome tech.
+ Musings about what it takes to be a leader.
+ Perfect ending
+ I have a huge girl-crush on Mira Desol. She dominated my heart as surely as that awesome book cover. I loved her daring and how she broke the rules when fighting. I'm sorry the whole book is not about her.
Dislikes:
- Too many characters and POVs. I felt disconnected from the story.
- Sometimes there are too many unnecessary descriptions. For example: what is happening to human body when hit by some high tech bullets.
This was fun. Now I want to re-watch Star Wars! Recommended.

Mira by then had a predatory look on her face. "Oh, and you might want to tell the crew to secure for maneuvering."
"Yes, my lady," he answered dutifully, reaching for the ship's blower.
"Gas." Mira's voice caused him to pause and glance back.
"Yes?"
"Make sure they're really secure."
Oh hell. Gaston groaned. It was going to be one of those days.
