When you are a young adult in the Etheric Empire, your life can be changed in mere moments.

Often for the better.

Anne was saved by the Queen herself many years before on planet Earth. Now, she is struggling with focus, and coming into adulthood while her mom struggles with her own future.

When Anne’s mother makes an ultimatum, the Empress steps in, and Anne’s life is saved by her young friend, with four paws.

Now, Anne must grow up with her partner, and fast. Her new friends are going to need her in the future.

Together, the young woman and her partner, Jinx, have a future to affect.


Set on the foundation laid by the Kurtherian Gambit Series, this story tells about one of the fan favorites and her new partner. Together, they just may be instrumental in changing the future of technology and life.

    Michael Anderle (ok, weird talking about myself in the 3rd person) (1967-Hopefully a long time from NOW) was born in Houston, Tx. A very curious child, he got into trouble - a lot. What to do with an inquisitive mind when he was grounded? Read!

    Ok, done with all of that 3rd person stuff.

    In the first 20 years, I mostly read Science Fiction and Fantasy. In the last 10 years I have enjoyed Urban Fantasy and Military Fiction. With this background, I've been blessed with creating The Kurtherian Gambit series, a well-selling, and fan loved, collection of stories.

    The fans have propelled these stories beyond my wildest imagination and they should get all of the credit for sharing with friends, family and occasionally the random person on the street. They are fantastic!

    Hi, my name is Jinx and I'm S.R.'s support animal. Poor guy really keeps me busy too. He's been much happier since I arrived on the scene and I'll make sure to spend lots of time pretending to sleep so he can keep sitting in that chair thingie making those clacking noises with his fingers.

    That's all for now, Jinx out!

Excellent book, new series for me. Dogs that can talk and we human can understand them. Dogs that chooses which human they want to be with. Anne who is not feeling well failed her math test and she knows she will be grounded once again. No one wants to hear about how tired and sick she feels. Anne goes by to see Asher puppies but she is too scared to knock on the door. When know one shoes up she goes home and faces the music. How does she get a puppy? Find out by reading the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best spinoff series yet!
Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2017
Verified Purchase
As much as I love the Kurtherian universe, lately there have just been too many "so-so" books. Last year, every book was eagerly awaited. Now, it's more like "does this one fit and advance the story, or is it just filler?" (And of course, "WHICH spinoff is this one again? Weren't they in airships? Oh, that was the OTHER one...")

I can tell you that THIS book is not just filler. Yes, it's about a "secondary character" (or two), but WOW! What a pair of characters! Anne and Jinx are extremely realistic (dog person here, I can just hear my alpha male's voice every time Jinx speaks...) and may be painted in a minimalist way, but are fully realized none the less. The family background is very true-to-life, there aren't any wild coincidences - just a well-told story about people who happen to have a close connection to a certain Empress. More important - there is a LOT of room to grow here. Exactly what WILL happen with Anne and her new powers? WHERE IS BOOK TWO? :-)

I have been frustrated by being lost in the various story arches. Finding out I missed a whole bunch of books that followed the storyline but because they were by different authors they weren't linked. The way you have listed the various worlds and arches by author and in order is fantastic. That's what I have been looking for!! I'm not a Facebook person which may also be a part of the problem. The assumption everyone is. The information should be right in the books and not require the reader to look elsewhere. Forgive the corrective tone. Thank you so much. Its a shame if the readers are unable to follow the world development just because they aren't listed in order. Only the traditional listing of books by the author exclusively. This series of so many books isn't traditional. Its it's own world. Thanks for a path to find the works MA

I have yet to read a book from the Kurtherian Gambit world of books that even came close to disappointing me. Every one I have read, no matter from what series has rated 5 stars and if they have ten, they would all be ten stars. THAT is how much I love these books! The characters, both male and female, are top of the line role models for any human, child OR adult. I cannot recommend these books highly enough.

After reading the kurtherian Gambit series and end game, often wondering how Anne got into where she is now, I find this book a delightful read and very informative of other actions behind the scenes. Guys, thanks for writing this series, which makes reading the Kurtherian series even more enjoyable

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Addition to the Series

I am writing this after having read all three books in this series, and I absolutely loved it. It was just... Fun. If you are a fan of The Kurtherian Gambit collection of a zillion series, I can almost promise you will love this series! It is YA, so if you're really into MA's rather colorful use of language, it is by necessity quite lacking in this series,but you won't even notice, because you will be having so much fun enjoying Anne (remember the little girl BA saves from the bed?) and Jinx as they grow and learn together. Highly Recommended for any fans of the series. If you don't know The Kurtherian Gambit world, go start at the beginning RIGHT NOW with Death Becomes Her. You won't regret it!

4.0 out of 5 stars ok, not great
Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2017

By and large, this is foundational, for what looks to be another "internal" series. Life in the Empire, rather than the ongoing battle against the aliens. I'm also thinking the follow-ons will be laying the groundwork for some of the series much later down the timeline.

This is also, the freshman effort for the main writer, who's been helping as an advance reader/editor, if I remember the authors' notes correctly. It's not bad, but the characters seem a bit flat. From a plot perspective, there's too much intervention, at too high a level...calling in BA to handle a problem at school is using a nuke to kill a fly. Sometimes it's warranted, but other times it becomes a crutch.

5.0 out of 5 stars (Spoiler alert) Good read...

with a cool female lead. Anne Jayden, who becomes just Anne, and Jinx, one of Ashur and Bellatrix's pups star in this extra adventure.

Anne's mother almost kills her because she's too self-absorbed to notice Anne's illness. Jinx figures it out & tells B.A. The pod-doc fixes her, but changes Anne into a Vampire, thus her loss of last name.

Anne is a smartypants and gets hired as a "Junior Etheric Researcher" even though only 16. She begins her new job in the next book.
NOTE: Dogs don't lean against human legs (or vampire legs) because they are being "supportive". They do this to show dominance. Maybe change the leaning to head burrowing or licks? Or even face rubs, as those transfer the dog's scent to their human to mark them as "pack". Since dogs find the scent of their packmates reassuring, they may assume we do also (even though most of us can't smell the scent markers; maybe weres and vampires. can?).

I really enjoyed reading more about Anne, and then Jinx joined with her to make such a wonderful team, which made it even better.

I'm not sure if this was written aimed at young adults, or not, but I've found it just as much fun to read at 60, as I might have in my teens!

It was fun to read about how both Anne, and Jinx, changed, and grew, and matured into a wonderful partnership.

It's also great to see that they will be doing a bunch of research, too, as I'm sure there must be ways that the Etheric can be utilised more.

I'm a total sicker for any story with an animal in it, be they real, or a figment of fantasy but, as a longtime dog person, seeing Jinx and her family showing just how bright dogs really are, was a true treat.

All of my dog companions are gone to their reward now, so I get my 'fix' while reading stories like these (friends are kind enough to share their furry friends with me, occasionally, too - there's nothing like a doggy hug to make things feel right with the world!)

So far, I have found every author who writes within the Kurtherian Universe, that I've read, to be amazing bringers of ideas, and who can sweep their readers right into the centre of their stories, and this is true of this author, too.

I'm so pleased to have come across these books, and can't wait to read the next one in this series : Etheric Researcher, to find out what other adventures our intrepid team will get up to - because it's so obvious that they are bright, and curious about everything around them, of course! Lol

A real nice story zu read, especially when you like dogs. There are some really funny passages and a good introduction oder a nee storyline.
I am not sure, but from reading all KTG books the timeframe isn't 100% logical to me. But it is real good entertainment.

Loved to see the character of Anne come more to life after she was delivered to safety from a bed of explosives. From a sad beginning, she and her parents moved to space, however, Anne was not feeling the best and was having a hard time at home. Jinx happens upon Anne’s scent and decides she wants Anne as her human, but things go bad. In steps Bethany Ann to the rescue and Anne’s and Jinx’s life aren’t the same again.
This was a very interesting read and is great to see the growth of Anne and Jinx happening right before our eyes.
Bring on the next book in this series.
