Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The stunning finale to the Defy the Stars trilogy from the New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Lost Stars and Bloodline .

Hunted and desperate.

Abel only has one mission left that matters: save the life of Noemi Vidal. To do that, he not only has to escape the Genesis authorities, he also must face the one person in the galaxy who still has the means to destroy him. Burton Mansfield's consciousness lives on, desperate for a home, and Abel's own body is his last bargaining chip.

Alone in the universe.

Brought back from the brink of death, Noemi Vidal finds Abel has not only saved her life, but he's made her into something else, something more. Not quite mech, yet not quite human any longer, Noemi must find her place in a universe where she is utterly unique, all while trying to create a world where anyone--even a mech--can be free.

The final battle between Earth and the colony planets is here, and there's no lengths to which Earth won't go to preserve its domination over all humanity. But together, the universe's most advanced mech and its first human-mech hybrid might have the power to change the galaxy for good.

"Abel, the most advanced robot in the galaxy, must save teenaged soldier Noemi by resurrecting her into a human-mech hybrid, a decision which will have consequences throughout the galaxy and may just turn the tide in the war between Genesis and Earth"-- Provided by publisher.

Booklist Review

Star-crossed lovers Noemi and Abel, caught in the war between Noemi's home planet (Genesis) and Earth, have triumphed for the moment but at the potential cost of Noemi's life. Her mortal injuries require the kind of help that can only come from the brilliant family that created Abel, a mech a machine with a soul and saving her may very well cost him his life in return. Abel is still being pursued for his body (as a host for his dead creator's consciousness); Genesis and Earth remain at war, although Earth's treachery has been exposed; and now Noemi struggles with the bionics that saved her life, yet changed it forever. Readers are thrust headlong into ever-escalating situations, a sort of continuous catch-and-escape cycle, that is enriched by Gray's command of detail and commitment to character. Background knowledge from Defy the Stars (2017) and Defy the Worlds (2018) will definitely be handy for keeping up with characters, situations, and circumstances.--Cindy Welch Copyright 2019 Booklist
