"Just please, remember what I told you. Run. Don't stop running for
anything."*
Buckle up your seatbelt for Victories Greater Than Death, a
thrilling YA sci-fi adventure set against an intergalactic war from
internationally bestselling author Charlie Jane Anders.
Tina never worries about being 'ordinary'--she doesn't have to, since
she's known practically forever that she's not just Tina Mains,
average teenager and beloved daughter. She's also the keeper of an
interplanetary rescue beacon, and one day soon, it's going to activate,
and then her dreams of saving all the worlds and adventuring among the
stars will finally be possible. Tina's legacy, after all, is
intergalactic--she is the hidden clone of a famed alien hero, left on
Earth disguised as a human to give the universe another chance to defeat
a terrible evil.
But when the beacon activates, it turns out that Tina's destiny isn't
quite what she expected. Things are far more dangerous than she ever
assumed--and everyone in the galaxy is expecting her to actually be
the brilliant tactician and legendary savior Captain Thaoh Argentian,
but Tina....is just Tina. And the Royal Fleet is losing the war,
badly--the starship that found her is on the run and they barely manage
to escape Earth with the planet still intact.
Luckily, Tina is surrounded by a crew she can trust, and her best friend
Rachel, and she's still determined to save all the worlds. But first
she'll have to save herself.
