The Federation is desperate for the rare materials probes have detected on Mendel, but the system's blue sun is deadly to humans. The solution? Create a race of young mutated humans who can live and work on the planet. Corree has successfully led her small group of forest mutants for five years. Then the weird dreams begin. They disclose the group's previously suppressed memories and lead her on a search to find other mutants. When her quest takes her to the desert, Corree discovers a sinister plot as well as a terrifying enemy-one that will carry her far beyond Mendel's solar system.

Susan Kite is an Army brat; which means she grew up everywhere. She dabbled in writing when she was younger but didn't get serious until her children were grown. Now it is a contagious disease and she doesn't want to be cured! She began writing fan-fiction, but now writes young adult novels.

My House of Dreams was written after several visits to the Mission San Luis Rey. A science-fiction novel, The Mendel Experiment, was published in April, 2015 by World Castle Publishing. The sequels, Blue Fire and The Power Stone of Alogol, followed. These stories feature mutants and their quest to be accepted as they are. Realms of the Cat, is a middle-grade fantasy about cats and dogs working together to save a little girl. Moon Crusher relates the adventures an 1829 California boy kidnapped by aliens. The Legend of Billy Bob Flybottom is an earrly chapter book tall tale from Doodle and Peck. It is now available! My newest is an adult sci fi, Crossroads to the Stars, from World Castle Publishing.

The author lives with her husband in Yukon, Oklahoma, and are owned by an opinionated chiweenie-terrier and two manic black cats. You can find out more at www.bookscape.net

Howard Lipman

A YA thriller for all ages

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2016

Verified Purchase

This is an imaginative twist of the teenage group facing questions on who they are, their world, and others. Corree, Tanna and others are a group of genetically altered human children…adapted to live and grow up in a world that has a climate, atmosphere, and other aspects not conducive for a human colony. They are ‘the forest people’ with green eyes, super senses of balance, wing flaps for gliding, and other adaptations that allow them to survive in a forested area. They all have a ‘mist of forgetfulness’ of their origins, but that mist is dispersing and they all have dreams that hint of the past. Corree and the others finally feel that they are drawn to the Pod Ship outside the forest…the ship that brought them there from space. Corree is the first to enter the pod and learns of who they are, how they have been purposefully altered and what their mission is, to send back valuable materials and samples…and possibly engage in warfare with an Alien species on another planet. But the scientists who expect obedience, the ones off-planet who created them did not count on some unusual traits that they have, one of which is to be not that obedient, and somewhat suspicious. There are other adapted humanoids… adapted humanoids who were sent to 12 different zones on the planet, and they start to communicate and rendezvous with each other. They question all aspects of their mission, and have a feeling that they are not being given the whole story, and wonder about the truthfulness of what they’ve been told. This is a highly imaginative story for young and old, a fast paced sci-fi thriller with plot twists that keep you guessing and wondering. It’s an edge-of-your seat thriller and the author knows how to build up tension and action. The ending is extraordinary just like the unforgettable creatures that we meet along the way” Five stars and two thumbs up for Susan Kite. I can’t wait to read the other books in this series! (Review by Howard Lipman, pen name PanOrpheus, author of the ‘Delphic Oracle’, Songs and Stories’ and ‘The Antikythera and The Source’ sci-fi steampunk alternate history/fantasy series)

Fast-paced space epic

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 17, 2016

Verified Purchase

The Mendel Experiment is a sweeping space adventure. At its center is Corree, one of a group of specially designed human children sent to live in different environments on the planet they call Mendel. In flashbacks, she remembers some of what came before her life with her small group in the forests of Mendel.

In training sessions on Mendel, they are taught to hate and fear the Ologorians, an alien race. Without her knowledge, Corree is infected with a virus meant to wipe out the Ologorians. Then she and her friend Riss are captured by them.

While she is a captive, a friendly, scholarly Ologorian named Greelon teaches her, and they become friends, maybe more like father and daughter, despite Corree’s desire to return home.

Meanwhile, the scientists who created Corree and hundreds of other specially-adapted human children are under scrutiny by Federation overseers.
Power struggles and politics on all sides put both Corree and Greelon in danger, and the book ends without a clear resolution, though I assume the sequel picks up the story from there.

The story is fast-paced and engaging, the characters complex, the writing clear and crisp. It was a delight to read. I’m looking forward to finding out what happens in the next book.

Highly recommended!

Great, clean YA book!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 13, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a great book! Vary rarely do I read a book straight through anymore. If I’m not completely pulled in then it usually gets set aside, but I couldn’t put this book down! I also feel I’m usually pretty good at deducing plot twists but “The Mendal Experiment” kept me guessing. This is a great clean YA book! I will be recommending it to my friends and I can’t wait to read the next one!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 15, 2016

I've experienced two things as I have gotten older:
1) The science fiction I used to enjoy (Asimov, Heinlein, and the like) seem rather childish and poorly written.
2) The older I get, the more I enjoy young adult literature.

This book is well-written, moves well, has good dialogue, and is nicely plotted.
It reminds me a great deal of James Patterson's bird kids.

My only complaint is that the book ended without closure, obviously moving into a sequel. That being said, I have already purchased the sequel, Blue Fire, and I'm looking forward to reading it.

Keep up the good work!

The story totally sucked me in

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 27, 2016

Verified Purchase

Very unexpected plot and characters. The story totally sucked me in, and I really enjoyed it. It ends with a cliffhanger, hence the four stars, but I will definitely read the next installment because I cannot wait to find out what happens! There are a few typos, but nothing to change the meaning anywhere. The story is clean, no questionable things there. I would recommend this book to anyone above age 10.

I love reading books about imagined worlds. It is a great escape and gives my imagination a chance to have a workout. I'm 55, so this book will appeal to anyone at any age. The characters are well thought out and easy to imagine that they are real. Susan Kite knows what she's doing and I can't wait to read the next two books.

authentic and intelligent. I am eager to read the sequel

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 16, 2016

Verified Purchase

I seldom read syfy and only attempted this because I knew the author when she was beginning her career. I was blown away at its brilliance. The characters are 3 dimensional and developed. The story flows smoothly with its premise. Humans are given a new chance to become greater than their creators. No matter what shape Corree takes, she is still Coree all the way, lovable, authentic and intelligent. I am eager to read the sequel.

The Mendel Experiment by Susan Kite has a great original storyline and was very entertaining. Human children manipulated and genetically mutated in order for them to survive on a planet hostile to humans. After several years of being on their own how will they react to contact and instructions from 'The Federation'? I thoroughly enjoyed this first book I am looking forward to the next books in the series!
