Friday Favorites -- The Freedom Series

Freedom's Landing
Anne McCaffrey

It's the dawning of a new age for mankind when the Catteni descend to Earth and easily overcome the Earth's population. Thousands are herded onto slave ships headed for the intergalactic auction block.

Kris Bjornsen is captured in Denver on her way to her college classes and wakes up on the primitive planet Barevi. Courageous and resourceful, she manages a single-woman escape from the Catteni and is living in the wilds of the planet when she comes to the aid of a Catteni soldier pursued by his own ranks. Recaptured together, they join forces with other slaves to outwit their captors and a hostile planetary environment.

First of all, the plot line itself is one of the best, well thought out plot lines I've ever read. The description is vivid. The characters are a-mazing!

Anything Anne McCaffrey does is awesome, but this is my favorite series of hers, I think. It's just wonderful.
