Wow!!! mind blown completely if the first book managed to completely bowl me over this one blew me away with its sheer brilliance. Calico Descending is book two in the series and it can technically be read as a stand-alone read as though it is set in the same world as its predecessor it involves a completely different set of characters, Saying that this series is just so good you most definitely want to read them all. This is book one in a two-parter, I believe this concludes in December and I for one can't wait for the conclusion here it was that good. Genre-wise this is dark dystopian romance set in a post-apocalyptic future and it doesn't pull its punches one little bit. This was every bit as horrific as its predecessor with wicked and cruel intent throughout. The cruelty and total depravity visited on these young adults and children completely shocking to experience, where humanity has evolved to the point it is devoid of all ethical morality and the lack of conscience observed here simply unimaginable. This story is told in two separate time-frames the then and the now of four years later. After the raid on her hive by Ragers and the death of her mother Fourteen-year-old Calithea along with her ten-year-old sister Bryani are left to fend for themselves until they are both tricked and captured and taken to the medical facility at Calico for processing. This is the beginning of Cali's story, placed in the Alpha program Cali is assigned to a champion (Valdys). Her only function now a potential tool to control a powerful weapon, one who will do what he must to protect her from danger. This wasn't always easy reading with its dark themes but I was so emotionally invested in these tragically complex characters. Imaginative and so original this story dug in its claws and infected me, it was one hell of an emotional rollercoaster and it deserves every one of its five-stars, I highly recommend this it was just so bloody amazing. I voluntary reviewed a copy of Calico Descending (Juniper Unraveling, #2). Reviewed By Beckie Bookworm https://www.facebook.com/beckiebookworm/ www.beckiebookworm.com sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

In a world of suffering and brutality, she's the key to his humanity ...I was fourteen when I was sold to the men in black uniforms. Too young to understand I served a purpose beyond that of the other girls they'd taken.For the greater good.Now, after four years in Calico, I've seen more death and suffering than during my days of surviving out in the Deadlands against the threat of Ragers and famine. I didn't think this world could get any bleaker. Didn't think it could take any more from me than it already had.Not until I finally learned my purpose.That same day, I walked the dark halls in the bowels of this hell, where the suffering is in silence, and ghosts of the dead whisper through the walls. A place where nightmares are real.A place where I met my Champion-the most revered Alpha in S-Block-locked away in his dark cell.For the greater good.He's their weapon, their only line of defense against the mistakes of the past: the mutations that could wipe out all of what's left of us.Me, I'm his whipping girl. His reward for good behavior. And his punishment for acts of defiance.Calico Descending is the follow up book to Juniper Unraveling, a full-length dystopian post apocalyptic romance.SERIES READING ORDER: Juniper Unraveling (Book 1)Calico Descending (Book 2)Kings of Carrion (Book 3 No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
