SYDNEY REAMES
ASSIMILATION
THE SOCIETIES BOOK 1
Seven Societies. One Choice. No Turning Back.
Kena grew up inside Verkent, a conspiracy group whose belief that aliens originated human life on Earth was mocked—until the aliens returned, with a mission to decide whether Earth should be allowed to rejoin their Alliance.
When Kena is invited to participate in the Choosing, it seems the orphaned teen’s lifelong dream of Assimilating into one of seven different but equally wondrous Societies in their home worlds is coming true.
But from the moment she and other Earthers arrive at the Societals’ central space station, it becomes clear they’re under threat, not only from their suspicious hosts but also an enemy long thought dead.
With the Societies shaken by turmoil, her own fierce powers growing, a budding romance, and her friends' lives on the line, Kena faces a high-stakes challenge: Can she find not only a place for herself in these worlds, but a way to save everyone else who calls them home?

SERPENTINA
A NOVELLA
When Sarah, the meekly obedient daughter of a domineering billionaire, is sent into space and forced to join the wild, harsh life of the desert-dwellers on the planet Rover, she’s confronted with a choice. Keep her head down, as her father expects, and gather useful information about the strange planetary Societies that have recently made contact with Earth. Or welcome the power that comes with her scaly-skinned assimilation and reinvent her life, free at last from her oppressive family.
As she grows to care for those around her on this strange new planet, Sarah learns of a threat to them all, a shadowy group called the Spear. Her new abilities offer the chance to rescue not only herself, but many others. The question is: how far is she willing to go to protect this new way of life?

ALLIANCE
THE SOCIETIES BOOK 2
Friends In Danger. Family At Risk. Worlds Set To Fall.
Kena thought Assimilating to one of the Societies’ seven planets and finding a way to save the Earthers who couldn’t was the extent of her problems. She couldn’t have been more wrong.
The villainous Spear group has come out of the shadows and taken over the Hub, the space station that controls travel between all the Societal worlds. They’ve pledged to wage war and exact control over all the planets. Kena doesn’t even know who’s leading them, yet finds herself thrust unwillingly into a leadership role of her own. Add to that the complication of discovering she is Connected to Fell, with no time to explore her new romance with the forest walker.
Kena and her friends manage to return to the Hub, but defeating the Spear and rescuing their victims proves riskier and more complicated than predicted. Kena develops a new and frightening ability that could save them all, but it comes with a cost.
Will she disregard her principles to save those she cares about, or find a way to use her incredible power honorably without dooming them all?

ASCENSION
THE SOCIETIES BOOK 3
No mission without risk. No victory without cost.
Kena and the rest of the resistance have managed to escape the Spear, leaving their enemies stranded, for now, on Lone.
They’ve got a plan to save the Societies, but it means journeying to all seven worlds and putting everyone Kena cares about at risk. To keep Assimilation out of Bayard’s control, they’ll need to meld the crystals on each planet. But first, they have to find them—no easy task.
With Kena’s powers growing and the Spear on their tail, members of the resistance must move quickly if they hope to save their lives—and the unique qualities that make each of them who they are.
