You know Lieutenant Commander Spock. Well, Laila is his Granny (father's side). She has a significant influence on him during his childhood. She raises his interest in science, alien species and the universe in general. However, this is a story for another book to come. This book (book 1) is about Laila coming of age and her adventures. Vulcans are supposed to supress emotion and adhere to logic. What if you are a Vulcan girl and you love and you hate, you enjoy and you are angry. What if a Vulcan girl has emotions? What if you grow up in a Vulcan outpost within Klingon territory and you show emotions? You are suspected to be a Klingon under your skin. Laila is the odd one out, the one Vulcan girl which has emotions. Joy, love, anger and aggression are what Vulcans should suppress and under no circumstances display, but Laila is different. Her childhood is pretty carefree, until their outpost gets attacked by a Klingon army vessel. All surviving Vulcans become slaves of the Klingon Empire, farm slaves, mining slaves, construction slaves, but one becomes a gladiator slave. While the other Vulcans revert to logic to deal with the dire situation, Laila lets anger rule. She fights. Will she be able to free her mother, herself and survive the many fights? The story contains strong wording, racism, mild sexuality, fighting and bloodshed. I'd put a PG16 on the story, just to be safe.
