The Renegade Akseli Cyborg

Aldebarian Alliance Book 5

By: Dianne Duvall

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

Too many years of hunting psychotic vampires night after night have left Rachel with a need for change. So when the opportunity to travel across the galaxy aboard a Lasaran warship to a utopian planet arises, the powerful Immortal Guardian jumps at the chance. Rachel eagerly looks forward to making a fresh start . . . until an enemy attacks and she ends up alone in an escape pod so far from alliance-occupied space that no one can hear her communications. No one except a renegade cyborg who shouldn't exist.

After a hard-fought rebellion, Wonick and his cyborg brethren settled on a distant planet, where they've finally carved out a peaceful existence. The Aldebarian Alliance believes every Akseli cyborg died long ago. And Wonick is determined to prevent anyone from discovering otherwise, knowing such would spark the fiercest manhunt in the galaxy. Yet when he hears Rachel's communications, temptation drives him to speak to her, sparking friendship and a longing for a different future. Rachel finds Wonick even more appealing when she meets him in person, and their friendship soon deepens into love as the cyborgs cautiously welcome her into the fold. But the warriors' ability to collect intel uncovers a secret the enemy has guarded for decades, one that compels them to embark upon a mission fraught with danger.

Contains mature themes.

Immortal Guardians Rock

I relish each new chapter in the Immortal Guardians/Aldebarian Alliance saga, and The
Renegade Akseli Cyborg does not disappoint . Keep up the outstanding writing and narration.

The suspense and unexpected turns in the story were awesome…

Once again the characters were well developed and the setting well laid out. Thanks for a fun listen that pull me into another world and allow me to get away in the moment.

seeking Justice

I like Dianne duvall's books I cannot wait for the next book to come out. whatever you put your mind to and accomplish I think that's what's most important. let's see what you think of it I love it.

Can’t wait for the next one!

Enjoyed all of her books she hasn’t let me down yet, can’t wait for the next one. But till then I’ll just keep listening to them over and over again.

What a wonderful story!

I liked the fact that the story fits in well with the rest of the big picture and search for gifted ones. My hope is that the cyborgs all find love from earth. I hope more immortal guardians and gifted ones find their way to space just to show the alliance how honorable many earthlings can be and how shaking up the universe can be a good thing. Great job Dianne Duvall. I can’t wait for the next story.

Truly worthy heros all of them.

The gentleness of a real man with a genuine strong character.
Rachel is a delightful woman who is dedicated to justice for the people she loves. At the same time she finds a whole community of men who deserve her love and laughter. Rachel walks the tightrope of finding justice for friends struck down in a horrible way while not destroying a community men who have banded together to heal each other's wounds.

Great world building!!

I totally love how Dianne weaves great world building together with an engaging storyline and heartwarming characters! Also, Kristen Potter is a master of the dialect! Each character in the book has its own voice and personality. You can tell who speaking just by hearing the first couple syllables. Thank you again for another smashing success!!

Great job!

I really enjoyed this book! I couldn’t get enough. First book, I lost sleep listening too. I loved everything thing about it!

Love the series!

I love Dianne Duvalls writing and characters. Kirsten Potter is one of my too 5 narrators - she brings this series to life.

Cyborgs rock! 😉

Dianne Duvall and Kirsten Potter are a dream team like the Warden and Jim Frangione, or Kresley Cole and Robert Petkoff! I confess that I was tempted to “read” this one when it released, but I knew I’d regret not experiencing the magic of the audiobook … at least for the first read! So glad I waited! It had me laughing out loud, and neglecting all my responsibilities. My only disappointment was that I finished it way too quickly! 🤦🏻‍♀️
