Cerys: Valkyrie Earth by Merrin Slade

Perfected humanity. Relentless battles. A daring leap into a world where she doesn’t belong.

Cerys Skye knows what it’s like to survive. In a society obsessed with genetic modification, she is a Wild Type—imperfect and living on the margins.

Every day in the Refuge is a struggle for survival, where she fights in brutal prize matches just to keep food on the table for her sister.

Dodging punches isn’t her idea of a future, but entering the United Planets’ Space Force Academy is also far from what she had in mind. Yet here she is, facing down prejudice and trying to keep her head down.

However, the Academy harbors a cyber evil threatening to upend the universe. When Cerys is thrust into a conspiracy, it turns out that even the most unlikely people can be heroes. This story includes fight scenes and sexual content.
