With humanity on the brink of extinction, one teenage girl could save the species or spark a world war.
Mirari Vega feels death's chilly breath. A global pathogen has killed every woman in her life and she'll be next. So when her father gives the eighteen-year-old an alternative, she must make an impossible decision-die with a raging fever or climb into the frigid embrace of an experimental cryogenic chamber.
She calls it a suicide machine. Her father calls it a chance for her to live again. Neither can imagine the horrors waiting for Mirari when she opens her eyes 12 years later.
The world is a violent place without women. Beautiful robots give the men companionship but can't give them children. Mirari's fertility is the ultimate natural resource-a prize every kingdom wants to own. To crown her queen, they'll have to catch her first. Mirari Vega is no man's pretty princess.
Bringing science fiction to a dystopian Texas, Freezing Reign is the first book in the pulse-pounding Reign series by L.A. Goff.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS
A superior dystopic Sci-Fi thriller with a Texas-sized scope. Compelling and refreshingly unsentimental...with nightmarish overtones. - Kirkus Reviews
Trust, betrayal, desperation, and existential ethics blend in a patiently unfolding, thought-provoking thriller that perfectly blends social critique with suspense. The premise of Freezing Reign is entrancing and enveloping, combining a variety of post-apocalyptic themes into an original, empowering, and addictive read. - Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★1/2
Just when you think you've got a handle on this story, it will surprise you. Goff showcases what people are truly capable of...and musters up a great deal of girl power in a world with nearly no girls in it. Expect sadness, friendship, survival, and a little dash of romance in this empowering Sci-Fi. - Independent Review
You will be pulled into the dark and haunting realities of a world marred by pain and death, but eased through the tragedy of it on the lyrical beauty of the author's writing. Such deep and sad truths, universal, about life and humanity, suffering and hope, offered to the reader like secret windows into a soul. I do not exaggerate, and please don't miss the incredible experience of reading this book. - The International Review of Books
