“You hear of people going missing all the time. They just seem to vanish from the world. You wonder if someone has killed them. You wonder where they are.”Brangwen Roberts is one such person. One minute she is playing with her baby daughter in the garden of her home; the next she finds herself in an alien world. But it is not the world of an advanced and enlightened alien race. Technologically advanced alien slave traders have simply sold her on to a planet where the technology and attitudes are more akin to those of Earth’s Middle Ages. At first utterly alone, Brangwen needs to summon all her courage and strength of character to survive in a world where greed and intolerance thrive unchecked. Then there’s the man who may or may not want her for all the wrong reasons, a journey across strange lands, her only friends a pair of semi-android fellow slaves ... and yet, through it all, the different world she finds herself in is in some ways all too familiar to our own.     Sue Eaton’s debut novel is not just great storytelling in science fiction but a stunningly original and engaging book that creates a world that will make you think about your own.
