Freddy discovers she has alien DNA after she volunteers for the Volunteer Project.  Based on that DNA, she is the Oracle from a race that was thought to be gone.  One of the Guardians on her new world turns out to be her mate.

Query is the 32^nd book in the Terran Times Second Wave series.  Other than a few mishaps, this story is different in that there is not major crisis that Freddy has to overcome.  I loved the reason she has Sneed, her toy dragon.  I also had a good laugh at some of the antics of the Guardians and later when Freddy finds out a drink she was given gives her the same reaction as the tea she drinks while she is giving people their fortunes.

Rune is also from a race that had to adapt, but they have a history of taking Terrans as mates.  It was entertaining how Rune and Freddy get together, especially since Freddy already knew he was her mate. 

The glimpses received about the other Guardians are interesting, especially Ember and her brother, Rescue.  I really liked some of the names of the secondary characters in the story.  It will be fun to see some of their stories in the future of this series.
