"Dora's story and what a story it is!!!"
After reading THE CHALLENGE, I immediately contacted Susan
Kearney asking about Dora's story. I was ecstatic when she
told me that it would be the next book out. Luckily she
sent me a copy of this fabulous book. Dora is every bit
as spunky and loveable as a human woman as she was a
computer. Dora does everything in her power to get herself ready for
her human body. Tessa helps her in this endeavor even
though Kahn has doubts. Dora wants to be the best woman
she can be in order to snare Zical whom she enjoys
sparring with as a computer. Now if Zical can just accept
her as a woman, she'll be ecstatically happy. While Zical explores the new planet Mystique that Tessa
bought for the Rystani people, he discovers a strange
anomaly. Part of the face of the cliff he climbs looks as
if it is a doorway but he can't figure out how to open
it. With Dora's help Zical not only opens it but somehow
sets in motion dire circumstances not only for his people
but for the whole galaxy. Now he, his crew and Dora must
figure out how to set things right before their whole
universe is destroyed. This leads to a long arduous journey to the outer reaches
of space. They don't know what they will find, how long
they will be gone or who they will encounter but they are
all willing to sacrifice whatever it takes to keep their
people save and alive. This book is every bit as heart stopping as THE CHALLENGE
was but it's so much more. It is my fervent wish that
Susan Kearney sees fit to delve into this amazing world
she created with many more stories. I know I, for one,
will be eagerly anticipating each and every one.

SummaryDora Wants to Make Love to Sexy Zical...
But the change from sentient computer to human is a much
more complex process than Dora has ever imagined. With the
hope that the intriguing Rystani warrior, Zical, will find
her as attractive as she find him, Dora trades her
neurotransmitters for a curvaceous human body. But she has
much to learn about loving and being loved.
Dora's simpatico relationship with machines both fascinates
and alienates Zical. However, after he accidentally summons
ancient machines that protect the galaxy form invasion, he
needs Dora's expertise. As Zical pilots their spaceship to
the galaxy's rim, they face both physical and spiritual
challenges, but the biggest threat of all is daring to love
Dora.
