Loralynn Kennakris 2: The Morning Which Breaks
by Owen R. O'Neill
It was supposed to be the beginning of a new life—not a replay of her old one . . .
For eight years, Kris was the property of a brutal slaver captain. Now she's free and a brand-new cadet at the Nereidian League's military academy. All she brings to this new life is a unique set of skills, a profound ignorance of 'civilized' society, and a large chip on her shoulder.
But Kris isn't quite sure what to make of the Academy, and the Academy isn't at all sure what to make of her. The medical staff thinks she's homicidal, her fellow cadets think she's crazy, and her instructors don't know what to think.
So when she's approached about helping capture a terrorist warlord, she's more than happy to leave the halls of academia behind for awhile. Kris knows she's not signing up for a pleasure cruise. What she doesn't know is that the key to the mission's success is reliving her very worst nightmare . . .
"The Morning Which Breaks" includes an extensive glossary that defines terms, describes technology and organizations, and provides additional background material for the Loralynn Kennakris series. Comprised of over 300 entries, the glossary is fully indexed and cross-linked to give you easy access to the information you want. An indexed biographical list of characters is incorporated as well. (Note: Due to the size of this glossary, the length of the story itself by Amazon's estimated page count is 558 pages.)
Authors' Note: This book pertains in part to sexual slavery and the effect it has on those rescued from it. It deals with both physical and physiological trauma. Although fiction, this is serious matter and may disturb some readers. It is not 'young adult' fiction, and we do not consider it appropriate for younger readers.
