A nice young adult Science fiction novel. About two teens who loose their mother in an accident that occurs on the space station where they grow up. Leaving them with no choice but to move to Grass Valley another space station more up to date and larger than they have ever seen, It's like having earth floating about in space. Here they find it hard to settle into the new surroundings especially as the Martian war breaks out . They see their prior home destroyed and then suffer through and deal with the war that rips apart the new home. During this time they have yet to meet up and reunite with their father. Going on a journey to find him and to understand what is happening. All the while Seth has to deal with his sister Jenna and the risk she runs of her implant lungs stop working and it becomes harder to breathe. Accompanied by their fathers Robot Anne (Annie as she is often called by Seth) They watch their world changing around them.

Ava is the daughter of the resistance leader known as the hidden flower of Mars she is struggling in her own journey on this space station trying to keep herself alive and out of the enemies hands. The only problem is she isn't sure anymore which ones are the enemies and often feels she's better off left alone. The only problem. No one wants to leave her alone.

It's a fast pace story and well written it doesn't or didn't snag me and keep me gripped but I'm a very picky science fiction reader so I say give it a go you may like it more so than I did. (
