The Recognition Rejection

Critical praise for THE RECOGNITION RUN: "Struck from the template of classic space opera, this tale of intergalactic adventure hits all of the right notes. It has a likeable hero and heroine, nasty villains, a plot full of intrigue and unforeseeable surprises, and a colorfully rendered outer-space backdrop against which its well-paced events unfold." - Publisher's Weekly The BookLife Prize Critic's Report NOW... After beating almost insurmountable odds, Jeanine has laid claim to her birthright: the largest duchy in the Star Kingdom. As Jeanine's sworn enemy, Princess Olivia, distances the royal family from direct confrontation with the new Duchess, a new enemy arises. When Jeanine and Olivia are both kidnapped, their husbands -- Drake and Prince William -- must bury the hatchet and work together to rescue the women they love. The Recognition Rejection continues the star-spanning saga of royalty and revenge that began in Vogel's award-nominated novel, The Recognition Run, with the same flair for exciting story-telling fans of Vogel's previous best-selling space operas have come to know and love. "It's not lip service to say that Henry's books have proven that I'm not broken as a fan of speculative fiction, which is what I was starting to believe before I read Scout's Honor. I just needed something that reminded me of why I love the genres. His books are glorious love letters to the fun and optimism that draws us in when we're young." - L.
