My Review:

This is a spin-off from Gena's Alien Huntress series so if you have read that you would be familiar with the terms AIR and Otherworlders.

Solomon Judah works as an black-ops agent who finds himself caged and bound in a circus zoo one day.  He has known love from his adoptive parents but everyone else calls him a freak or animal. 

Vika has grown up under the cruel hands of her father and he has beaten her so bad he has taken her hearing.  She treats the captives kindly but some of them taunt her and even throw stones, food, etc. at her. 

Solo was a great hero because he was big, strong, protective and Vika was a great heroine because she's smart, kind and how she coped and endeared the treatment she received from her father and a couple of Otherworlder captives.

4/5
