Sally Ann Melia in her new book, “Guy Erma and the Son of Empire” published by Dickson House introduces us to Guy Erma.

From the back cover:   Do I trust you? Can I trust you?

Two boys as different as any two boys might be.

Guy Erma has only one dream – to join the Dome Elite, a planetary protection force of space marines and fighter pilots. An unregistered orphan, to gain his place Guy Erma must plead his case to Chart Segat, Commander of the Dome Elite. He must do whatever Chart says.

Teodor, Prince of Freyne, is snatched from a life of privilege by militant borgs, vanguard of the Dome Elite. To survive he must plead his case to Machiavellian politician Chart Segat. He must do whatever Chart wants.

Whatever Chart Segat wants…

In a fast- paced space opera thriller, featuring telepathic aliens, military cyborgs and political intrigue, a galactic empire stands on the brink. The two boys paths are drawn to a crossroads a horrific planet-killer peril is revealed, and changes both their lives forever.

The only question remains: “Do I trust you?

They call this type of story “Space Opera” and I have not read a good space opera in a really long time. At 423 pages there is quite a lot going on and all of it is exciting. Guy and Teodor are the most unlikely duo you will ever meet but when these two come together they can bring about the revolution. Get ready there is action and suspense, great battles and planets at war. There is so much going on that you will find yourself reading as fast as you can to keep up with the story and you will give up sleep because you won’t want to put it down. This is great stuff. These are fascinating characters that seem very real and we feel as though we are part of their team as well. The book will delight those who love • Science Fiction • Space Operas • Star Wars style Adventures • Galactic Empire stories • Young Adult Science Fiction • Young Adult Space Opera • Young Adult Thrillers • Young Adult Action Adventure  I recommend this book.
