No Refuge (Known Universe # 1) by Annie Nicholas

[Eva Millien]

Blurb:

(Off Goodreads)

Hunted to near extinction by an alien race called the Ko, my people have run from Earth and drifted so far among the stars we can’t remember the way back. We live everywhere, but call nowhere home. The Ko want us erased from existence and memory. They don’t even want our DNA in the space dust. Humans disguise themselves as other alien species and hide in plain sight. It’s the only way we can survive.

I believe in the myth of Earth. I’ve even discovered a bona fide book written in the dead language of my people. My man, Brody, dreams of a secret human colony. He’s searched for years, hunting any rumor we’ve run across, and finally he’s made contact. Usually, he’s the one grounding me to station and keeping my head out of the atmosphere. Time for me to return the favor…that is, if I can ditch the Ko who’ve discovered me, thanks to my incessant artifact-hunting. If we don’t make our rendezvous, and the Ko don’t kill me, Brody just might…

CONTENT WARNING: Aliens, cargo ships, and a fast paced race against all odds.

My Review:

Ever wonder what the world would be like if humans were the minority, what if they had to hide throughout the galaxy or be exterminated. What would you do? This is definitely an enjoyable quick read that takes the reader on a adventurous race that gets the adrenalin pumping. I do wish that it had been a little longer and given us more detail in the world building, but that could be set up for future books in the series.  So I will definitely be looking for the next one to see just how the humans are faring in this world of conflict.
