Alliance Headquarters and Admar – In the Future

 

An Alliance Reader, Sarah Marks, can 'read' flora, fauna, and people. Her Psi abilities sometimes overwhelm her senses, especially when picks up on another's thoughts, so she keeps most of her skin covered. One of the side effects is that there are times when others are pulled into her head.

 

The planet Admar has been rediscovered, but it appears to be deserted. Negotiator Amy Tyrell has assigned Sarah to the team that is being sent to explore the remains of a once-great civilization. Sarah is eager to go but there is the matter of an archeologist, Professor Ridwal, whose academic life she threw into a tailspin some years back. He is less than pleased that she will be along.

 

Despite him, Sarah does what she is best at: finding signs of life if any exist. None of the landing party can quite believe what they see when Sarah opens the gates of a massive structure. Waiting for them is an Elf--- a tall, dark, and gorgeous Elf.

 

Demetrius Tahmores is one of the last Admaryn. 1,500 years ago he had placed himself in stasis to wait for the woman he saw in his dreams---Sarah--- to come to Admar. When they meet, Sarah is immediately smitten and soon scrumptious, sizzling sex takes them over.

 

MARKS OF ADMAR is so very good. It is charming, well-written, the heroine can hold her own, and the hero is yummy. In a short space the author tells a most satisfying story of love and adventure. Just like the previous Champions of Terra stories, MARKS OF ADMAR gives readers a look at the fascinating universe created by author Viola Grace. Her take on civilization is that all peoples, no matter how diverse, CAN co-exist. We are also given a bit more information on Negotiator Amy Tyrell and her place in the Alliance. Add it to your keeper shelf.
