Modern Disciples: Volume 1
Modern Disciples: Volume 1
I recieved this book in exchange for an honest review!
I found this book amazing, the twist and turns made this book a page turner and I could not stop reading it once I started. The God's that you are introduced make you believe that they could really exist. The main character Ryan had me going through a roller coaster of emotions. After reading so main books with major cliffhangers this book was a nice change! I loved the book and will not feel complete until I know the entire story!!!
I wanted to thank the author for the opportunity to read and review there book, I have already told my friends and family that is a must read!

Modern Disciples Vol. 3:
Modern Disciples Vol. 3:
By: I. S. Anderson
The story is about 6 disciples: Lisa, Jane, Ryan, Angie, Sajaad, and Armand. The story starts in Florida with Lisa and Armand. Lisa is soon jetting off to Japan. In Japan Lisa meets up with another disciple, this time a daughter of Aphrodite. Lisa also meets a disciple of another one of the Japanese Gods. Even though Lisa starts the journey in Japan alone however the other disciples in her group soon join her…
This Story is told from Lisa’s POV this time. Unlike the last book I could really relate to Lisa and her issues. This story brings you in and gives you a better understanding of how it feels to be the daughter a daughter of a God. The story is well developed and I really enjoyed it! This book is a page turn and really draws you in. This book has more adventure and shows you more mythical creatures than the first two. I think anyone who likes stories of Gods and myths will really enjoy this book.

Mythos (The Descendants, #1)
Mythos (The Descendants, #1)
by Vrinda Pendred
I received this book from the author free of cost in exchange for an honest review.
I would like to thank the author, Vrinda Pendred, for the chance to read this book.
The Prologue of the book seemed to be a bit out of place for me at first, I was unsure what it had to do with the story; however, later on in the book the prologue starts to make sense. This story is about Itzel Loveguard and how she comes to know her Half Brother Oz and his friend Seth. Itzel learns that she is part of race that isn’t exactly human in fact she is a descendent. She is thrust into a world of Myths and Magic. This book took me on an adventure. I found myself relating to Itzel and wanting things to work out for her. I had a hard time putting the story down. I was unsure of this book to start out with but I found myself following the story in my imagination. I found myself pulled into the story not wanting it to end. The book leaves you with a bit of a cliffhanger so I am looking forward to the release of the next book.

Water's Edge (Troubled Times, #1)
Water's Edge (Troubled Times, #1)
by Rachel Meehan
Synopsis:
With their own water and power supplies, fourteen year old Nairne, her brother Zane and father Daniel are well prepared to cope with the effects of climate change, but most people are less fortunate. Thousands are fleeing the chaos and social unrest brought about by severe floods, heat waves and droughts which are sweeping across the UK.
When Nairne persuades her father to house some of the evacuees on their smallholding in the south of Scotland she plunges the family into a world of violence, deception and murder.
Nairne soon discovers the truth. With society at breaking point, she has to grow up quickly as she alone can take revenge on those responsible. She discovers that the fortress Daniel built to give his children a chance, has become the prize in a struggle where winning can mean the difference between life and death.
Review:
This book caught my attention because it was a story dealing with Global Warming. The book was told from the a third person point of view. Nairne was the main character and it starts off with her mother dying. Nairne lives with her father Daniel and her brother Zane. Her father Daniel is a Carpenter, her brother Zane was in an accident and sustained severe head trauma, so he was held back a year in school and his learning skills are a bit slower than normal.
The story was set in the UK. The details the author uses to describe London was great and I could see it perfectly clear. I could feel and see all of the details in my head as the author was describing them.
I found the story predictable in places but I still found myself wanting to see how things played out. The ending of the book I found interesting. I feel as if the story was unfinished at the end. So I can not wait till the second book comes out.
