Koral is a fascinating character, and we get to see several years of his life in this one novel.Īt first, Koral came across as a little bit stupid. I felt it was an excellent blend of the two genres that fans of both will enjoy. This is a science fiction novel, but many aspects have more of a high fantasy feel about them. After a short time, he is given as tribute to the gods and becomes a rogue who is possessed by the spirit of a god. Koral runs away from his spaceship home and finds other members of his alien race. She still hasn't yet found an off switch to give her an ounce of peace from the characters plaguing her mind, a list that grows bigger every year with all of them clamouring for her to tell their story first. This would prove to be the start of The Rogue King Saga as, come her twelfth year, she discovered there was a book inside her.Īldrea now lives in Upper Hutt, on yet another small farm with a less hectic, but still egotistical, group of animals (cats will be cats). She spent a great deal of her childhood riding horses, whilst the rest of her time was consumed with reading every fantasy book she could get her hands on and concocting ideas about a little planet known as Thardrandia. She grew up on a small farm out the back blocks of a place known as Wainuiomata alongside a menagerie of animals, who are all convinced they're just as human as the next person (especially the cats). She writes fantasy romance of varying heat levels and sexualities. Aldrea Alien is a multi-award-winning, USA Today Bestselling, bisexual and genderfluid author from New Zealand.
