Representaion Toward Books Girl Under Glass (Glass and Iron #1)
What do you do when you’re trapped between death and the devil? To protect her young daughter from a madman and a tyrant, Rachel Pryne must trust an enemy - one of the alien warriors who conquered Earth.
It is 2032, the Ohnenrai - Earth’s humanoid alien conquerors - orbit the planet, and Terran reproduction is failing. Rachel Pryne, a trained medic, is struggling to protect her seven-year-old daughter, Pearl, from the sexual predation of their penal colony’s leader. Having fathered the girl by rape, he now intends to take her on her eighth birthday, only six weeks away.
Then Rachel finds her unlikely champion - an injured Ohnenrai soldier who appears in her yard one stormy evening. She knows she may be choosing death over the devil in trusting this warrior, but she doesn’t know that her trust, and her DNA, will make her one of the most important and endangered people to ever set foot aboard an Ohnenrai starship.
***
Equal parts science fiction, suspense, and romance, Girl Under Glass moves from a post-apocalyptic wilderness in the American Pacific Northwest to a high-tech world aboard an alien starship furnished with all the stolen comforts of Earth. Readers meet Rachel Pryne, whose parents' lifelong and life-ending connection to the Ohnenrai has set her upon a path she never wanted to travel. And they're introduced to Ehtishem, an Ohnenrai soldier who exists to save his dying people, but who faces enemies from within and without his own military.
The only possible solution to the Ohnenrai’s extinction lies within Rachel, but all she wants to do is protect her daughter and see Earth’s alien conquerors go straight to hell.

Really liked it. Didn't realize it was part of a series so wasn't expecting the "cliffhanger" ending.ARC received via NetGalleyI really enjoyed this book, mainly due to the fact that the story was different. It wasn't like books I have read previously. It was well written and I would read more of this author's work. I look forward to future books in this series as I am intrigued as to what will happen with these characters.One of the things I like about sci-fi/alien themed books is that the author basically has a clean slate in terms of the world their story is based around. For this book, it
This book started out very good and ended at "meh". Things fell apart towards the end as the characters totally changed their personalities in the last 1/4 of the book. It was very odd, almost as if the author was just rushing to finish it. It ends at a cliffhanger, which I find annoying.
This is going to be a long one...An alien race known as the Ohnenrai came to earth. Religious fanaticism increased as a result and One Hundred days of terrorist attacks ensued. The Ohnenrai stepped in and took over by force, restricting the remaining humans to penal colonies. One of those colonies is Suffer, where Rachel Pryne and her daughter Pearl reside. While still living inside the penal colony, she is cast out of the puritanical community as a result of her sinfulness, although in

Yay!!! A full length exceptional indie dystopian sci fi romance that has been well edited! A rare and wonderful find, this is the first book in a planned trilogy. While the story arc continues after this book a lot of what made this book nail biting good is wrapped up in this first volume.---From the book description:It is 2032, the OhnenraiEarths humanoid alien conquerorsorbit the planet, and Terran reproduction is failing.
