Happy Friday, book lovers, and welcome to First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books. I’m diving into the science fiction realm this week with Kathy Tyers’ upcoming release Crystal Witness. When I read the description for this book, it piqued my interest, especially since I’ve been wanting to give one of Kathy’s novels a try for a while now. (I’ve heard several people rave about Firebird, which I still have my eye on.) Look for my review coming soon!
About the Book
Her memories are blocked. Her freedom is gone. Her crime is a mystery.
When Ming Dalamani awakens from twenty years of suspended animation, she recalls only fragments of her former life: the life she led before she was arrested by the governing interplanetary corporation, Renasco, for a now unremembered crime.
Relocated to an alien world far from the only home she has ever known, Ming serves a powerful Renasco representative to repay her debt. But daily she lives with deadly threats from two men—the hideous mutant Zardir Huekk and the handsome, secretive musician Tieg Innig—who both want the same thing: information. Renasco-trained as a calligrapher in three dimensions, Ming begins to remember more: a clan, a mission, and interstellar piracy.
Ming must decide where her loyalties lie: with her powerful new employer, with a budding resistance movement… or elsewhere.
