I read and adored, MARKED. I couldn't wait for the sequel. ELEMENTAL -doesn't disappoint. I LOVED this book. It was beautifully written, with plot twists and turns, and the perfect amount of romance. I recommend this book to anyone who is tired of the same old paranormal/fantasy book. This book has it all.

This must be the most original series I have read in a long time. ELEMENTAL is even better than the first book. Kara dies again at the beginning--and the action takes off. The story follows her as she tries to find her mother's soul, taken by Demons. At the same time, Kara is hunted by the Legion, and ventures into the demon realm--Netherworld. She is faced with even more challenges and discovers the real truth about who she is. This book is so amazing, I couldn't put it down. The writing is so captivating and every page left me clinging for more. The suspense just kept me going. The book ends on a cliffhanger, and I'm dying to find out what happens to Kara in the last installment of this series. Can't wait to read more. Great book!

As soon as I finished reading the first book of this trilogoy (Eternity), I started to read "Infinity" - "Eternity" was so good that I could hardly wait to see what would unfold in this second book.  I was not disappointed!

"Infinity" picks up on a smaller story line from "Eternity" - it's about Arianna, Raven's sister, and the love of her life (Nicodimus) who'se heart & life were ruthlessly stolen from him 5 centuries before by one of the "dark ones".  It covers Arianna's childhood, the blooming love between Nic & her, his death, & the results of her attempt to revive him 5 centuries later.

Will he come back to life?  And, if he does, will he still love her?  Could he ever forgive her for inadvertantly being a part of his death?

Overall, I found "Infinity" to be yet another page-turning read.  It's intriguing & romantic, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this genre - as well as to those who would like to try something new (as I did).  Who knows, you may become a Maggie Shayne fan as well...

Again, Ms Reid has outdone herself! This is another fantastic read! While I love, love, love her books, I will be devastated when this series is over. Mr. Reid is a storyteller extraordinaire! I can't wait to read books nine and ten, even though I will be sad to lose all these fantastic characters.
Again, many thanks for sharing your stories with us! Read this series, trust me, you won't be disappointed!!!

FANTASTIC!  Once again K.F. Breene has written another favorite! I am so excited to see this world through Pennys eyes. She is hilarious!  Paired with Emery I think they will be unstoppable and it will be great fun watching her learn.
This has all the action, magic and comedy I love in a great read and is set in a world I that I got hooked on with the Fire & Ice series.
 I was really looking forward to catching a glimpse of Reagan, Callie & Dizzy and I'm not gonna lie...I really enjoyed when Darius showed up but this story is awesome all on it's own.
I absolutely recommend this book and the Fire & Ice series.
Actually I recommend all of the books from this author!

So, after reading Ms. Fan's first book in the series (Artificial Absolutes) I knew exactly what to expect as far as writing style and pacing going into this sequel and let me tell you, Ms. Fan doesn't disappoint!

Loads of books and movies have touched on the whole 'synthetic person' topic and what it means to be human or machine, so I was a little hesitant about the originality in the beginning, but after reading the first book and then this, all my worries went right out the window.  Ms. Fan did a fantastic job of touching on the emotional struggle of understanding what it means to be human, when literally every fiber of your being points to the contrary.

I don't want to get to explaining what I like about the story line, but let me just say that the first book was a fun, action packed story with a great plot, shockingly realistic characters and wonderfully described landscapes and vehicles...in my book (haha play on words there) Synthetic Illusions surpasses Artificial Absolutes in every way possible.  Artificial Absolutes had me wanting more, Synthetic Illusions has me screaming at the top of my lungs for a third book!

Do yourself a favor, pick up both of these books and enjoy the beautifully well crafted world that Ms. Fan has so eloquently described within.  You won't be disappointed!

Having read her other series and the Montgomery Ink novellas, I anxiously awaited the first novel in this series. As always, I finished it in one sitting! Yes, her novels are that good!

Although, the book was released in October, I just read it....between being sick & accidentally de-registering my Kindle, I finally read it and am starting the next book in the series.

You can never go wrong with this author's novels. She brings the characters and the storylines to life in a way that leaves you vested in the characters. Do yourself a favor if you haven't read her novels and purchase just one. Trust me, you will be

Hold on tight...it's another fast ride!!!  The science behind all of this author's books is thought provoking.  You get caught up in the characters as well.  Another great story!  You don't want to miss out on another great story by this author!  I recommend this book.

I simply LOVE this series! Great plot and characters. Some red herrings and I can't wait for more. Somethings not right with their bosses! Ever get the feeling you are being used? Keep up the fantastic writing!

I pre-ordered this book last year because I'm hooked on these Peter Grant stories. Mr. Aaronovitch has produced another thoroughly engrossing and original tale with our favorite London sleuths of the extraordinary and the fantastic.  Fans of this series won't be disappointed and the author finally reveals the origins behind one of the characters who appears in all the novels. And the reader can clearly expect a follow-up judging by the ending, I eagerly await the next novel.

I have never been so sucked in to a story or heroine before. I'm sure tons of people prior to me have recalled the plot line, relieving me of any obligation to do so. I'll just mention what I think you need to know. For anyone new to the series this is an intense fantasy series people are tortured, suffer & often die terrible deaths. That being said it is beautifully written,sincere and flows naturally ,in fact one of my favorite things about this writer is that she avoids gratuitous sex or violence just to "hold the reader", the excellent plot stands on it's own two feet. If you are new to this series make sure you read them in order!! You are in for a fantastic read, enjoy :) I can't wait for the next book!!!

This is an excellent read! As always, the author does a fantastic job with the various storylines and intertwining them! There were a few unexpected plot turns that kept me reading to find out what would happen next. Im hoping there is a continuation of the story because I would love to read where the characters go from here!

I'm addicted to this series & this author's writing! The fun & series moments, the sad & happy moments, the angry & depressing moments.... I can't get enough! *scrambles to grab the next book in the series*

This novel grabs you at the beginning & doesn't release you until the last page and even then the characters stay with you! There's something about J.D's characters that are familiar in every book. I'm anxiously awaiting the next book!

Great read!

Another edge of your seat, action-packed, fantastic read! As usual, enough creative situations and twists and turns to keep the story fresh and continually interesting. Lots of new characters, but ones we'll never see again.
I was disappointed because the book centered around just one character. After being accustomed to knowing what's going on with each member of the whole gang, just the point of view and storyline on one character didn't have the same awesome effect as it did in all previous books. Also, it didn't help that this character isn't one of my favorites. He's just sort of........blah. I'm surprised the author has a couple of other spin-off books centering around him. Odd.
Anyway, hopefully we'll return to the previous format in the next book(s). I can't wait to read what comes next!

I have found a new favorite author! Jane Killick has created characters and a world that is fresh and original. This second book in the series was every bit as well written and engrossing as the first. I really liked the new characters that are added, while keeping some of the old ones as well. This action-packed, fast paced storyline never seemed to stop moving forward. The characters are so well-developed you feel happy, sad, and mad as the story moves forward. You cannot help but take sides of who is good and bad, yet there is nothing at all predictable. So many twists and turns and surprises that you are never bored. I cannot wait for the 3rd book to come out! Ms. Killick has managed to build a world that I want to delve into book after book after book. Great read.
