À propos de cet audio

Combining the social commentary of The Handmaid’s Tale with the white-knuckled thrills of Red Rising, this epic space opera filled with “lush prose” (Publishers Weekly) follows a comfort woman as she claims her agency, a soldier questioning his allegiances, and a non-binary hero out to save the solar system.

First Sister has no name and no voice. As a priestess of the Sisterhood, she travels the stars alongside the soldiers of Earth and Mars - the same ones who own the rights to her body and soul. When her former captain abandons her, First Sister’s hopes for freedom are dashed when she is forced to stay on her ship with no friends, no power, and a new captain - Saito Ren - whom she knows nothing about. She is commanded to spy on Captain Ren by the Sisterhood, but soon discovers that working for the war effort is much harder when you’re falling in love.

Lito val Lucius climbed his way out of the slums to become an elite soldier of Venus but was defeated in combat by none other than Saito Ren, resulting in the disappearance of his partner, Hiro. When Lito learns that Hiro is both alive and a traitor to the cause, he now has a shot at redemption: track down and kill his former partner. But when he discovers recordings that Hiro secretly made, Lito’s own allegiances are put to the test. Ultimately, he must decide between following orders and following his heart.

With “a layered, action-filled plot and diverse characters” (Library Journal), The First Sister explores the power of technology, colonization, race, and gender and is perfect for fans of James S.A. Corey, Chuck Wendig, and Jay Posey.

A queer, emotional sci fi drama with complex character relationships and intricate world building, THE FIRST SISTER is a story meant to break the reader's heart while putting important messages into the world.

The plot revolves around three characters: First Sister, a woman whose presence is meant to comfort soldiers in war, Lito, a soldier tasked with eliminating a powerful target connected to First Sister, and Hiro, the missing warrior with shocking secrets tying them all together.

The characters are the core of the story. First Sister is woefully naive and emotional, and I didn't quite know what to make of her at times. I found it hard to connect with her because she wasn't as active as I'd hope she might be. Lito was my favourite, a man questioning everything he knows as he's given an impossible task to not only assassinate one of the most powerful people in the galaxy, but assassinate his former partner, too. Hiro has charisma and charm, but I still struggled to connect with them. Part of it could be because the relationships all these characters have to each other, or certain pairings at least, felt rushed. I didn't have as much context as I would like to fully believe their bonds.

That's likely my biggest critique: The book was quite heavy on emotion. First Sister was constantly crying and there was a little too much internal thought and character drama for me to be engaged. That said, the plot writing and plot were solid and the action scenes were fun. The world building is immersive and fresh, drawing from some familiar inspirations like DUNE and RED RISING, while highlighting the strength of its LGBTQIA+ characters.

While I didn't love this book quite as much as I would've liked, it is a well written book with drama, excitement, and multiple wild twists at the end. Perfect for anyone looking for a queer sci fi story to be entertained by!
