Publisher's Summary:

A final battle for the survival of Earth is coming. Between the alien Others and the destruction of humanity stand four Dissidents. When the Prime Other banishes them to the Harvest Site to live the remainder of their time on Earth as slaves, the Dissidents use the opportunity to learn more about the substance that keeps the Others alive...and how they might use it to their advantage. But the Others guard their secrets well, and the Prime Other has proven his willingness to do whatever's necessary to secure a future for his race, no matter what or who is destroyed in the process.

When Althea and the boys realize their lives could be the key to allowing another planet to suffer the same fate as Earth, they promise they'll die before they let that happen. If they can't figure out how to turn the tables in their favor before the Summer Celebration, they might have to do just that. The end draws near, and there's only one question left: are the Dissidents going to save their chosen people or perish alongside them?

Members Reviews:

Bad ending for a good series.

This book was a a bit of a let down, and full of holes. I still liked the series as a whole, but the ending left something to be desired.

Just as an aside, did anyone else notice that this book contained a character named Griffin who is a shapeshifter, who likes to end sentences with the word, "Yeah". I wonder if this is a nod to the Rylee Adamson series and Elemental series by Shannon Mayer.

***Warning Spoilers follow***

The first issue I have is that in book 3 it was very important that they not allow Griffin and Greer to have their minds open to the Other's or they would be tortured and killed. They release them, and suddenly that's not a problem anymore.

They know ahead of time that the Other's will find Greer, Griffin, and Nat, and yet do nothing about it, nor even discuss it. Purposefully making your characters forgetful or uncaring about each other just to make sure the plot line lands with the most impact is a disservice to the readers.

The theme that the four dissidents combined would be more powerful is repeated through out the series, and they spend a great amount of time trying to get their fourth, and yet once they are all together and working together, the only thing they do is transport themselves. Which they had done already with only 3 of them together. Deshi himself never really contributed much other than a sample of the powder, which didn't seem to be all that necessary to the weapon they built. At the end, he goes to his corner of the world and does whatever it was that was needed to put the earth back to rights, but it could be argued that he would have done that anyway, if they didn't try to rescue him until after dealing with the Others.

Griffin's death was completely pointless and done in such a way that it did not have much emotional impact. He is killed right in front of 3 of the Dissidents and they do absolutely nothing to help one of their most powerful allies. Again, it feels like overt manipulation to force the plot to place that was desired by the author despite how unnatural that outcome was.

Excellent series, if a little wordy sometimes - highly recommended

I really enjoyed this series and read all four books in record time. The author's use of description and wording weave a wonderful story.

Cynthia has always hidden from her father's hexes behind her older sister. When her family gains independence unheard of for women, she's relieved that her days of harsh punishments are over.

With his help, she may just find a way to save her sisters while discovering how to stand up for herself. If she lives long enough.

Members Reviews:

Good story but couldn't listen to the narrator

I read the first book and liked it so when I saw that I could get the 2nd on audible I was excited. I should have previewed it first. All of the characters sounded the same and I found her voice to be grating. The story is good and I like the concept but I think I will just read the books instead of listen.

Revealing new secrets

Any additional comments?

Second book in the Mine series.

The author returns us to a world where women are considered property and, supposedly, their only value is their ability to produce magically endowed male children. This time the protagonist is a sister of the previous book's protagonist. We get to watch as she directly challenges some of the most firmly held beliefs of her society.

I especially liked how the protagonist's personality differs from how her sister perceived her in the previous book. Part of this is due to the secrets she kept from her sister.

I like the story,but...

I really like this series of books so far. However, they should've gotten someone else to read this book. Do not waste your money on the audio version of this. Just use the National Weather Service voice that comes with your Kindle, or just read it yourself. I hate to be harsh with anyone, but this really is badly done. The girl's voice is very childish, and there's barely any distinction between her characters. I think she would be much better reading a child's book .

I really do like the story, so I'm going to keep muddling through. I should have listened to the sample before I bought it.

The girl knows she's different. She doesn't age. She has no family. She has visions of a past life, but no clear clues as to what she is, or where she comes from. But there is a face in her dreams - a light that breaks through the darkness. She knows his name is Gabriel. On her way home from work, the girl encounters an injured stranger whose name is Jonah. Soon, she will understand that Jonah belongs to a generation of Vampires that serve darker forces.

In the crossfire between good and evil, love and hate, and life and death, the girl learns her name: Lailah. But when the lines between black and white begin to blur, where in the spectrum will she find her place? And with whom? Gabriel and Jonah both want to protect her. But Lailah will have to fight her own battle to find out who she truly is.

Members Reviews:

Vampires and angels done in a way you never saw coming!!

It was absolutely no secret how much I wanted to read Lailah and let me just say that all my stalking tenaciousness paid off tenfold. I was absolutely thrilled with this book. Nikki Kelly has devised the perfect game of cat & mouse with a plot line that pulls the reader along through the book without ever feeling frustrated or forced. I was RIVETED!!

Lailah is a story about a lost girl who knows she is anything but normal, she has no family, no real homeâall she has are vague recollections of memories and the fact that she knows that for some reason she canât stay dead. Lailah stumbles across a vampire named Jonah, and little by little a few tiny pieces start falling into place. When a face she sees in her dreams finally becomes a reality, she knows his name is Gabriel & she knows he meant very much to her a long time and many lives ago. Will Jonah or Gabriel be able to fill in the blank spots in her mind and her past?

I loved going on this journey with Lailah as she discovered who she truly was. The perfectly paced plot and well thought out storyline kept me constantly on my toes. Just when I thought Iâd seen vampires and angels done in every way possible but, Nikkiâs imaginative writing renewed my faith and breathed life into the otherwise stale topics. The work and effort she put into it is abundantly apparent while reading. This book while complex, due to multiple story lines overlapping, never felt messy for me. The vital information to finding out who Lailah really was fed piece by piece until it brilliantly fell into place at the end. Lailah was such an interesting M.C. While I sometimes thought her decisions childish and hasty, I understood that it was exactly what the author had wanted me to feel so BRAVO for feels!!

I would like to address the issue of âthe love triangleâ. I personally never have a problem with insta-love or love triangles. That being said our little miss Lailah keeps on dying and waking up so she is bound to have a few exâs lying around. It just so happens a few of them turned out to be vampires or an angel. What im saying is that for once I think the dreaded love triangle was an acceptable clicheâ due to Lailahâs ummmâcondition.

Having these two men vie for your attention wouldnât seem like all that big of a problem to me. Lailah knows she has a connection to Gabriel.

Members Reviews:

Fast Paced and Awesome!!

I am in love with Alyxandra Harvey! (if your reading this I hope thats ok) I have been pagan for over 20 years and I keep reading books about witches etc. And every time they muck crap up!! I am very happy that Harvey didnt do this!! She did her homework and well it really makes me happy. One of the funniest things said in this book was when Gretchen is talking about using a pendulum. It goes Clockwise or Counterclockwise for your answers. But then she goes into saying that her teacher called it Sunwise and Widdershins because, witches have to make everything complicated. I LOVE IT!!! I laughed so hard my husband was trying to figure out what was going on.

(Sorry you would have to be a witch to prob get that)

Anyhoo, I really love Gretchen. I really loved this book more than book one. Gretchen is such a lovable character and I think should would have been fine in the world today. She is a no nonsense girl who knows what she wants to do and does it no matter if its proper or not. hehe

We get some more world building in this one to. I love how the author is opening up the world a little at a time. It makes it so that the world is not overwhelming.

The love interest I kinda pegged right off the bat. But that was fine. I was very happy to learn more about Tobias and Moria. And I really hope for a book three!

Go Into This One Knowing

Fast Paced and Awesome!!

Ready for the next book!

I love Alyxandra Harvey's captivating stories, strong characters, and humor! This series is fun, exciting, and filled with imagination and charm. I hope the final (?) book is coming soon!

Just as good

The second book is just as good as the first! I can't wait for the 3rd.

Five Stars

bring on book 3, leaves you on a cliff hanger :O but worth the read

A great read

Alyxandra Harvey is one of my favorite YA authors and I am really enjoying her Lovegrove Legacy. It has been a while since I read the first book and so I really had to search my brain to remember but as I read Whisper the Dead things started to come back to me.

In the first book the cousins had to deal with the Greymakin sisters and to make this spoiler free I wonât mention anything else from the first book. So you would think everyone would think the cousins, Emma, Gretchen and Penelope would be more heros than criminals but not so much to the witching world. The order has keepers always tailing them and Gretchen gets Tobias Lawless.

This is where you see how well opposites attract as Gretchen is all about breaking traditions.

"The concept is very imaginative and well-defined.... In spite of the sci-fi fantasy theme, the notion of love and trust in

Travel Glasses made quite an impression on me." (

Readers' Favorite)

"This was a refreshing deviation from the plug any date into a time travel machine and push a button approach of time travel seen in so many other novels." (

YA Love Magazine)

Members Reviews:

Fantastic YA Fantasy/time travel

Valcas shows Calla how to use the travel glasses to help her escape. she is intrigued. however it soon becomes apparent that Valcas has his own reasons for helping her. can she trust him? is he what he seems?

I loved this book. I honestly got it because of the awesome cover and because I love time travel. this book is special because at it's core there are fascinating characters. It is amazing because of the clever way that time travel is used. I will not go in to great detail as everyone should experience it for themselves. there are many different layers in this book.

The narrator does a great job in bringing this book to life. some stories are made to be told out loud, and this is one of them. when you are done with this one, the second one continues the journey and will not let you down.

Great YA fiction.

potential

What disappointed you about Travel Glasses?

I was given this audio book in exchange for a review. The concept is great. Love the time travel and the beginning of the characters as well as the intrigue, but the dialogue is stilted and uncomfortable. When the main character is talking to herself/narrating the book moves very smoothly, but when she or anyone of the other characters have a conversation is goes no where fast. Good potential, but not there yet.

A hit debut novel!

I received an audio version of this book in exchange for a review.

I really did enjoy this book. I thought it was imagnative and extremely descriptive. It took me a long while to get through because I didn't have my usual time to listen.

Members Reviews:

Captivating Content and excellent story line!

This tugs at the Human/Canine bonding while a group of teens and parents battle the killer haunts trying to invade our world. Interesting and humorous interaction between humans and canine make this novel a must read. I laughed out loud on numerous occasions as I have found that this author Mr. DeLeo can make a person do freely. The author has a sense of morality that is obvious to the reader. Thank God for Bernard DeLeo. I have read every single series he has..All superior to most writers. But hey I'm bias, I like real entertainment!

How About a Muslim Good Guy Sometime?

I suppose not many reviewers will have my point of view. Many will not have known anyone named Mahmoud. Few will be able to see the story from his point of view, or believe he could learn to love the child as his own, which after all it was. Having taught many Saudis over the years, I can.

Paranormal party crashers

4 stars for a good story that held my interest for me to complete reading this book in less than 5 days. I enjoyed most of the interacting of characters except for the red head trying to assert her alpha status with Mike. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a light hearted read with action and suspense.

Don't judge a book by its cover...

Who expects a book called Demon to be so funny and addictive? I enjoyed getting to know the characters and their very near normal lives until Demon comes along. Well done! Thanks! I'm about to start book 3 because 1&2 were great.

Paranormal?

Love all of Bernard's other books but wasn't too sure I'd like this, although I enjoyed American Mutant. Love, love, love Demon! Love Mike! Moving on to #2.......

Critic Reviews:

"A complex, intriguing tale rooted in real-world events." (Publishers Weekly)

Members Reviews:

Another Brilliant Read by Parker!

Holy freakout. This book completely outdid GATED, which I thought was amazing. There is so much about this book that I loved. Lila was a strong and independent thinker in book one but in this book, everything she believes is put to the test like never before. Pioneer and the Community were even creeper than in the first book. By the end of the book, my heart was racing as I was flipping through the pages until the very end. And what a satisfying and rich ending too. Such a fantastic read that even now days after I finished it, the story still tugs at me.

Suspenseful and Action-Packed!

Amy Christine Parker is such a talented author! I absolutely loved both Gated and Astray. The story moved at a great pace and kept me engaged the entire time! I loved how dark some moments were but there were still lighter happier moments!

Good Teen Read

This was a gift for my granddaughter. She was hooked after receiving a signed copy of "Gated". She tells me that "Astray" is every bit as exciting as "Gated". All in all,a good read for a young teen.

Wish there were more in the series!

This is an easy and page turning read!

Astray

Great read! Proud to say I've known Amy since she was a young girl. Loved Gated and thought Amy out did herself with Astray. I look forward to Amy's next book. @amychristinepar

Mitglieder Bewertungen:

Fun German language edition book

What did you love best about Saphirblau (Liebe geht durch alle Zeiten 2)?

1. It was read in the original language of the author. That's a plus because a lot of the sophisticated and witty humor is sometimes not that easily translated. Generally speaking, I think all of Kerstin Gier's books should also be offered in the German edition format for the native speakers or those who want to get a better "feel" for the language itself.

2. It's part 2 of a trilogy series. Unfortunately, this second book seems to the only one available in German. This is quite unfortunate for someone who wants to hear the book in the original language.

3. It's easy and entertaining reading. The book seems to be mainly geared towards young adults.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Saphirblau (Liebe geht durch alle Zeiten 2)?

There were quite a few. It would be easier to understand the storyline if I had read the first book first. But re: this book, let's say this: Gwen, the main character, apparently can see things that other people can't. This makes for some amusing interactions taking place.

Which character as performed by Maria Ehrich and Josefine Preuß was your favorite?

Definitely Gwen.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Magical and funny

Any additional comments?

Please offer the other two books of the trilogy ("Rubinrot" and "Smaragdgrün"?) as German edition audiobooks.

Publisher's Summary:

Our world is only the beginning.... Cameron's father is dead and his inheritance is...rather unusual. He has power to world shift: travel between the Human and Daemonic realms and the Parallel - a void where the worlds meet.

Between befriending werewolves and battling daemons, Cameron's new life is already pretty complicated, but things are about to get even more dangerous.

Members Reviews:

One of the Best Books I Read This Year

I read very few books this year, I found myself busy and preoccupied but Daemon Parallel is one book I could not put down. A whimsical fantasy story set in the streets of Edinburgh. However this is not the usual Edinburgh but one connected to the Parallel a passageway where the human and daemon worlds collide. Only a few people can interact with both the Human and Daemon world and Cameron our protagonist discovers that ability runs in his family.

Cameron has just lost his father and has gone to live with his Grandmother Ives. His grandmother tells him about the Parallel and that he can bring his father back from the dead. But of course these things are never easy and by entering the Parallel, Cameron also enters a world of adventure, danger, and uncertainty. On the way he makes some long lasting friendships and important discoveries about himself.

I loved all the characters but probably my two favorites were Morgan a teen with a bit of a bite and Grandma Ives, a deliciously fun character. However thatâs not to take away from Cameron who readers will easily identify with as he enters the Parallel into a fantastical coming of age story.

This is a book that will bring joy to readers of all ages. While I have not visited Edinburgh yet and I donât think I will ever be lucky to enter the Parallel; these places came alive for me as I read and I felt I was transported there through the pages of the story. In the end I felt I became good friends with Cameron, Morgan, and Eve and wanted to continue with them on their journey and luckily I was able to in the wonderful sequel Werewolf Parallel.

I wish more novels carried themselves this well

This is a cracker. The story hooks you in from the first line and won't stop taking you to unexpected places.

A lot of elements might sound familiar â werewolves, parallel universes, daemons, and a bit of magic thrown in for good measure. Don't let that fool you. Roy Gill has a flair for visual invention, and all of his daemonic creations are dramatically unlike the tropes you get in other fantasy and horror. His surreal brush-strokes remind me a lot of Michael Ende's strange creatures in "The Neverending Story". Even though Gill borrows a little more from established mythology, he's no less inventive with his fantasy.

I don't want to spoil anything for readers who haven't had a chance to enjoy this yet, but the suspense is solid and the author understands that good guys are allowed to be a little bit bastardy in the middle of their character arc. It's really refreshing to have characters, especially YA ones, who sound and act like real people.

Before I started reading this I'd been bogged down in some fantasy garbage that couldn't bring itself to say one interesting thing, even with vampires and witches at its disposal. I've got to give kudos to "Daemon Parallel" for reminding me what good writing is.
