Review: Nebula's Music by Aubrie Dionne

Synopsis: Each note brings her one step closer to the truth. When the cyborg Nebula plays the piano she experiences memories from a time before her creation. These memories…which involve a captive rebel fighter being held on their ship…bring with them complex human feelings and awaken a desire for her to discover her origins. Radian is the long lost love of the woman from which Nebula was made. He’s vowed to avenge his fiancé’s death and rescue her sister from the Gryphonites, a fierce race out to enslave the galaxy. Nebula grapples with her identity and how much of who she is comes from someone else’s past. She is not the woman that died, yet she is undeniably drawn to Radian. Together Nebula and Radian seek to rescue his fiancé’s sister and end the Gryphonites’ cruel reign. But can Radian learn to love again and can Nebula accept a past made from someone else’s memories?

Details: Adult Science Fiction/Romance ebook, published March 2010, 68 pages.

First of all, I love this cover!

I was drawn into the world of Nebula's Music from the first page. Compared to some other science fiction books I've read, this one is easy enough to understand. The storyline drew me in, until I couldn't stop reading. I had to find out what happened next! Nebula's Music has non-stop action and creativity.

Whenever Nebula plays the piano, memories from her host body's life come back to her. I liked this part of the book because I also play the piano and have had seven years of training with various teachers.

While reading Nebula's Music, I was reminded of The Host by Stephenie Meyer (another great book, by the way), in the way that Nebula and Wanda were made. They were both put into a body that wasn't theirs.

The only semi-negative thing I have to say about this book is that it was too short! I wanted to get to know the characters more. I understand that this is a shorter book so the story had to move faster, but I would've liked to dive a little deeper into the story and have more expanding explanations of the fantasy world Nebula was living in.





I was sent this ebook from the author to review. You can find out more about Aubrie Dionne and her other books by going to her website and blog.
