Knight Apprentice (YA)

 Cerita is a hard working student, she also has a after school job to help her family out and helps with her younger siblings as she can.  So when this strange  guy pops into her life and starts trying to convince her she is of a different race and needs to come train with him as his apprentice, well things just didn't sit right.
This is a very cool, different kind of book.  I think  a large amount of people will like this book as it has a lot of diversity to it and I found that refreshing.  The action is at a level that will hold everyone's interest but there are parts that still slow down just long enough to let you catch your breath before the author turns up the speed again.
The story is well thought out and leaves you clamoring for book 2 The Choosing.

She doesn’t have time for world shattering reality to interfere with life. She has work, school, siblings, her mom, the house and now, of all things, Atlantis wants her time too. How is that even possible? James has lived among the homo-sapiens, on the surface, for most of his life. He’s training though, to serve his people in Atlantis. His heart is torn when his master knight requests him to bring in the young woman selected by the Grand Council to train with him. She’s in a lot of his classes. She’s beautiful.

If that’s not enough, she’s also forced to accept she’s one of them, when her nanites come to life, and she opens a wormhole into space.
