"A reader would be hard pressed NOT to become mentally and emotionally involved with the book." --Amazon Reviewer
Alanna isn't sure what she is anymore. She's gone from being an innocent and curious village girl to … something else entirely.
After the experiments that destroyed everything she knew, she's cursed with a power she can't control. While on the run from the horrors haunting her past, she quickly realizes her own kind has turned against her. Now, Alanna must seek out the very species that ruined her life; the talnarins. These creatures are capable of doing things no human can do, but she's desperate for their help.
As Alanna tries to navigate this new life, it soon becomes clear that her very existence is a threat. Now she needs to prove her innocence or she stands to lose her entire life's purpose … revenge.
In this frightening new world, will Alanna survive long enough to destroy the nightmares from her past? Or will she find herself a step too far behind?
**Recommended for 16+ due to profanity, dark themes, and violence. This is not a standalone and ends in a cliffhanger.
"Chapman chooses not to follow the standard point-blank style of presenting background information or character history; instead opting for a reveal-as-you-go style. While at first taken aback by this slightly uncommon presentation of information I was not turned off by it. In fact, it proved to be a nice change." --Amazon Reviewer
"I loved this series and could not put it down." --Amazon Reviewer
"The literature was strong, and it was clear that the author had done her research. There weren't any loopholes or odd encounters questioning the plot. The side stories and character building was strong enough to add content and richness to the plot." -- Amazon Reviewer
"I have to admire the authors creativity, this isn't a story I think you could write easily given the heavy element of fantasy. But she pulled it off beautifully. There was never a part in the story that was unreadable or unrealistic for the genre or lazy. " --Amazon Reviewer
