Relation In Favor Of Books Empire (In Her Name: Redemption #1)
In the first book of an epic futuristic fantasy trilogy, this is the coming-of-age story of Reza Gard, a young boy of the Human Confederation who is swept up in the century-long war with the alien Kreelan Empire. Nightmarish female warriors with blue skin, fangs, and razor sharp talons, the Kreelans have technology that is millennia beyond that of the Confederation, yet they seek out close combat with sword and claw, fighting and dying to honor their god-like Empress. Captured and enslaved, Reza must live like his enemies in a grand experiment to see if humans have souls, and if one may be the key to unlocking an ages old curse upon the Kreelan race. Enduring the brutal conditions of Kreelan life, Reza and a young warrior named Esah-Zhurah find themselves bound together by fate and a prophecy foretold millennia before they were born.Publisher's note: This book is the first section of the original novel IN HER NAME (ISBN 978-0615208534), which is now the omnibus edition containing EMPIRE, CONFEDERATION, and FINAL BATTLE

Having just finished this book I can honestly say that it's well worth a second read just to absorb yourself in the world Hicks has created. It's part Gladiator, part Dances With Wolves but it is space opera and it's perhaps unfortunate that Avatar had blue skinned aliens too but I think Hicks' blue skinned Amazonian aliens are way cooler and much more exciting. It starts with the main character Reza being orphaned and meeting the Kreelan high priestess. He marks her with a knife and sheLet me preface this first with the warning this may be edited in the next few days before I post a review on Amazon.com; I want to get this right.Second, let me say that I normally prefer to review a book after I've read it a second time as I find I'm normally unable to think critically about a book after only one reading. However, Mr. Hicks seems like a good guy and since he asks his followers to please review his books and offers this one for free I felt obliged to give it some thought.The
I haven't read from the sci-fi genre since Star Wars first came out and I'm not sure what led me to this one, but I downloaded it onto my kindle and gave it a try. I was hooked from the first page and couldn't put the thing down! Morning sure comes early when you've been awake most of the night reading. Normally I don't like books that have anything to do with war (the alien Kreelans are at war with the human race) and yet this book captured my imagination, flung me into a world that became

I'm not really the Sword and Sorcery type of guy, but when you throw in spaces ships, a galactic war mixing it up with hard science fiction, I'll come along for the ride. I really enjoyed, In her name: empire. I think I'll read the next two books in the trilogy. I highly recommend this book.
nope. 19% and I'm saving myself the headache and quitting now. This book is the CakeWrecks version of Warchild and as I have already read the better story, I don't feel like continuing. However, for those considering this book, the first 19% has the following:- a boy whose parents get heroically killed but who himself is inexplicably spared by the aliens- said boy saving an (older) girl from attempted rape- the rapist trying again later (in great detail both times)- it turns out the boy is the
I stayed up late three nights to finish it on my tiny iPhone screen (that being said, I'm an insomniac due my in part to recent jet lag and tend to finish books/ movies I start after I get to a certain point). I liked being taken to the kreelan world,how details were gradually unraveled, and enjoyed the unexpected development between Reza and the female warrior. I was very invested in Reza's journey and want to read the next book to see how he copes, being torn between two worlds, wonder if
3.5 starsI thoroughly enjoyed this story. The Kreelan story was incredibly interesting and Reza made for an entertaining lead. I bought into the characters and the way of life. It wasn't a really memorable story so I will keep the review brief. I did read the sequels which really where not as good.
