I think they're normally priced at $15 (US dollars) and they're currently on sale for $9. It's tempting because I love her artwork, but then there's my shelf space issue... Still, I figured I'd post it in case anyone else is interested.

This appeals to the part of me that is always gravitating towards pretty covers. All the pretty, none of the "oh crap, I probably should have read more of the excerpt." Also, Julie Dillon has successfully delivered on at least one other Kickstarter that I know of, so it's a good one for the risk-averse, like myself.
From what I can tell, this book is discounted elsewhere, but only free via Kobo. Considering that the author talks a lot about her Amazon stats vs. elsewhere, I suspect she's testing whether a greater number people still end up downloading the book via Amazon.
Anyway, I've reviewed this. Pros: nice action scenes and alien cultures. Cons: Reese's behavior irked me, and I felt like the story could have been tightened up a bit.
I've linked to the Kindle version. For those who need EPUBs, here's the Barnes & Noble link. Sadly, Hogarth no longer sells her stuff on Smashwords.
I gave the book 3.5 stars.
