A Wigwam for a Goose's Bridle

Some humans left Earth and made a new home elsewhere, evolving differently and unbeknownst to those left behind. They are the Meridians. Some evil folk steal an artefact and head to Earth with nefarious plans. A disgraced young Meridian soldier withdrawing from drugs must join forces with a scaredy-cat civilian, one of her sworn enemies and a Earthling to try to stop them.

There is a lot of good story here and I’d love to see the movie. The writing lacks. Perhaps it is actually aimed at tweens? The real downfall is the cheesy romance between the Meridian soldier and her enemy. And then the book doesn’t even finish the story. It literally ends with “to be continued” so I guess the author decided to split it over two books. Bit annoyed about that.

Would I read the sequel? Hmmm. Probably. The story is interesting enough I’d like to see what happens. And the writing is simple enough it’s a fast easy read.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy in return for my review.
