About this listen

 Elle Olmstead isn’t your normal, every-day botanist. She’s different.

As a descendant of Ceres, goddess of the harvest and fertility, she, like others of her family, has a magic touch with plants. Real, honest-to-goodness magic. Which is why she unwillingly stows away on the Destiny, a space ship filled with ten thousand colonists heading for a distant planet.

Because she knows that her abilities are essential to keep the plants alive that keep the colonists alive and that will be the basis for their survival when they reach their destination. She's caught and thrown in prison, where her powers are useless. Soon the plants begin to shrivel and die. Starvation is imminent, not to mention that the plants provide essential oxygen.

But no one believes her when she tells them who she is and what she can do, especially not Cullen Vail, the one person she has come to like, maybe even love. Because Cullen is head of Security, an inscrutable, military type who has no time for stowaways and doesn’t believe in foolish legends.

She lied before, why should he believe her now? But somehow she must persuade him of the truth or ten thousand people will die. Fantasy Science Fiction

Great premise for the story, it's lighthearted mostly has a bit of world building. I would have liked it to be more in depth. The characters are a bit one dimensional as well. Everyone is pure good or pure bad, no nuances and lots of me wondering how the heck things worked as there weren't really many details. Narration just just bad with the virtual voice. Lots of mispronounced words as AI can't tell the difference between cum and comm giving comm unit a really distorted meaning through the story and that phrase was used often. I would listen to these maybe if they are free but it's hard to stay focused on the story with the virtual voice having limited ranged and no differentiation between the voices of the characters. I would NOT pay a credit for the audio version of this book however.

OK story, horrible narration
