My RatingMy ReviewI received this eBook from Xpresso Book Tours.
I really wanted to enjoy this book as much as I did the first. But I honestly had some issues with it.
Before I delve into the issues, I do want to say what I do like about the book though, because it wasn't all terrible. Aeris is definitely a lot easier to read about in this book. She's far less scatterbrained, more composed. Although it is obvious that her genetically modified genes are causing quite the ruckus for Hunter and the rest. Hunter is also more focused and less confused. He handles Aeris quite well, even if he is a little evasive to her questions at times. Okay so my issues: who in their right mind puts a child in that kind of danger? Whether they hoped Aeris would rescue the child or not. I really hope that man sleeps with his gun because if I was the mama, he'd be in major trouble. (To make matters worse, the child is also gravely ill. More points for that dad.) The other issue is the Tribunal. Like, do they act outside of the laws of regular society? Also, being Winterborn survivors, their rule is biased when it comes to helping other human beings. Clearly money and immortality makes them above the law, heh. Which also made me wonder about the last book too. Where were the law when there was this massive battle? So many questions, so little time! But as a writer, I know that every story does have a lot of ironing out to do. It's not a perfect science and everyone will question things from time to time. So I am still invested in learning about where this story will go and how it will progress. I'm definitely interested to see if Gage will come out of it and be rescued or rescue himself. It will be interesting. Where to BuyAbout the Author
