Guy Erma and the Son of Empire is a new three-part action adventure, set a long time ago on a planet far far away.

” Someone somewhere had decided Sas Darona plague could be used as a weapon.”

“They called them poison pills, and in some cases the glass eco-systems containing six venomous flies were displayed as part of contemporary interior decor. Strange!” Karl Valvanchi mused, “When you consider the insects are practically unstoppable and breed exponentially into great clouds of death. These plague weapons went beyond deadly. They were planet-killers.”

13-year-old Teodor has found a way to escape from kidnap, how long before he is safely home?

13-year-old Guy Erma has run away from everything he has even known and no longer knows what the future holds.

Their adventure has forged an unexpected friendship, but do they really trust each other? Dare they share their darkest, deepest secrets??

The paths of Teodor Freyne and Guy Erma have now become one, their fate becomes that of the Empire they were born to when they discover a hidden terror.

My Review

Exile is the final installment of Guy Erma and the Son of the Empire, yet it is only the beginning of what lies ahead for Teodor.  In Exile, Teodor finally escapes from being held as a kidnap victim and returns to his mother.

A lot happens in this final part of the book, but I can’t give anything away without giving a lot of spoilers! I will say that not everything is as it seems in this story. You never know who to trust or who is telling the truth.

The characters in the entire story are well-developed, and there is quite a bit of world building. I like how this is broken down into three parts as it makes it easier for a younger teen to absorb. The descriptive language that the author uses makes you feel as if you are in the story. Sci/fi isn’t usually a genre I will just pick up and read, but I am glad I gave this one a try.  If you are a fan of Star Wars and stories that involve different planets and federations with ruling families, you will enjoy Guy Erma and the Son of the Empire.

Be sure to read my reviews of Kidnap and Hunter if you missed them!
