"Conflicts with alien races are given enormous depth in this engrossingly written science fiction novel." Clarion Forewords Reviews For fans of Roswell , Stranger Things , and 5th Wave . Erika Holt dodged death and departed Earth in an alien ship. It wasn't how she'd planned to spend her senior year. Is Erika on her way to paradise? Or to a hell worse than the underground lab she escaped? The Greys rescued Tex from AHDNA and promised him a life he could never have imagined. But what must he give up to become one with The Conexus? Jack Wilson is still Commander Sturgis' prisoner, but a promise of freedom comes from an unlikely source. Will his liberation cost more than he's willing to pay? Caught up in their personal battles and focused on our war with the grey aliens, will any of them realize the true threat that looms over us all before it's too late? Wright's epic and much-anticipated follow-up to her multiple award-winning debut Sci Fi novel H.A.L.F.: The Deep Beneath Awards for H.A.L.F.: The Deep Beneath (Book 1) Wishing Shelf Book Awards, Silver Medal Kindle Review Book Awards, Semi-Finalist Library Journal, Chosen for curated Shelf-e Collection Beach Book Festival, Runner Up PRAISE FOR THE MAKERS : Literary Titan Gold Medal "An enthralling, page-turning sci-fi adventure. The makings of an epic!" The Wishing Shelf Reviews "Conflicts with alien races are given enormous depth in this engrossingly written science fiction novel. Chilling new villains are introduced, including the human Makers, an Illuminati-like organization of wealthy, powerful people with their own agenda, and the M'Uktah, a race of hunters poised to invade Earth. Their storylines add further intrigue to the already tangled politics surrounding the conflict between humanity and the Greys. Related plotlines ramp up toward the novel's end. These new threads-along with the big themes of the ethics of contact with alien races, the rights of artificial intelligence, and the importance of loyalty and friendship-have great appeal." Forewords Clarion Reviews, 5 Stars "Author Natalie Wright has a truly unique voice in the science fiction genre. Readers who enjoy a creative read, an epic storyline, an adventurous and thrilling book, or just a piece of science fiction will love H.A.L.F.: The Makers . Make sure you have enough time to read it from start to finish; you simply won't want to put it down!" Chris Fischer for Readers' Favorite, 5 Stars

H.A.L.F.: The Makers written by the fantastic, and award winning author, Natalie Wright starts off strong and striking with amazingly descriptive writing. The story follows two groups of protagonists, Erika, Ian, Dr. Randell and Tex taken via the Grays, an alien race who hosted a massive aura of mystery. Tex is being held separate from the others. The group believes themselves to be on an alien ship. However, Tex has information that could show otherwise. The aliens rejected Jack and left him on earth to the group's confusion, while Commander Sturgis, starting off with a messy confrontation with her superior, holds knowledge of what's to come.
Every character has a defined purpose and is finely crafted; each plays their role, with unique perspectives and interesting points of view. The writing is incredibly descriptive and sets the scene for each character. However, there is a lot of switching back and forth between different characters that made the story hard to keep in perspective at times.
On the other hand, the way the author meticulously develops the mystery throughout the story, and how carefully crafted each character is, kept be glued to the pages. They were like finely ticking cogs working towards the bigger picture. The opening segment was one of the most captivating pieces I've read in a long time, the detailed description of Erika inside the alien ship was fascinating and had me hooked from the very first page. Most characters are written in a very personal way that make them feel real and make it easy to understand their fears, pride, and personality.
The pacing of the story helped drive the mystery and allowed time for characters to fully develop.
H.A.L.F The Makers has a fantastic story, filled to cover to cover with excellent description and brilliant creative freedom. Personally, I knew I was going to finish the book from cover to cover the moment I read the first chapter. A short prologue would have been a welcome addition for new readers. But none the less, pure passion and creativity eased me into the story, and before I knew it, I was heavily invested.
