Taking our world’s benefits for granted never seems to be a problem. “Exile to the Stars: The Alarai Chronicles Book One” follows one Jeff Friedrick as his twenty-first century life falls apart, nearly killed, and then his life turning out that getting killed would have been the better result. Unusual events force his away from home, into a land known as Aketti. Culture Shock doesn’t begin to explain Jeff’s reactions to this world. An intriguing fantasy, “Exile to the Stars” is recommended to any fantasy fan looking for a new series to sink their teeth into.
