Goddess in the Machine by Lora Beth Johnson

With a vicious monarch on the throne and a city tearing apart at the seams, Zhade and Andra might never be able to unlock the mystery of her fate, let alone find a way to unseat the king, especially since Zhade hasn't exactly been forthcoming with Andra. They died centuries ago, and for some reason, their descendants think Andras a deity. Worst of all, the rest of the colonists-including her family and friends-are dead. Because if his people realize she doesn't actually have the power to save their dying planet, they'll kill her. When Andra went into a cryonic sleep for a trip across the galaxy, she expected to wake up in a hundred years, not a thousand.

Now he's hoping the Goddess will be the key to taking his rightful place on the throne-if he can get her to play her part, that is. When Andra went into a cryonic sleep for a trip across the galaxy, she expected to wake up in a hundred years, not a thousand. Four years ago, the sleeping Goddess's glass coffin disappeared from the palace, and Zhade devoted himself to finding it. Not only that, but shes in a hot, dirty cave, its the year 3102, and everyone keeps calling her Goddess. Zhade, the exiled bastard prince of Eerensed, has other plans. She knows she's nothing special, but she'll play along if it means she can figure out why she was left in stasis and how to get back to Earth. They died centuries ago, and for some reason, their descendants think Andra's a deity. Not only that, but she's in a hot, dirty cave, it's the year 3102, and everyone keeps calling her Goddess.

A smart, thrilling sci-fi adventure, perfect for fans of Renegades and Aurora Rising.
