I got this book from the author, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side.Firstly I would like to thank Travis Luedke, author of The Shepherd, for giving me this wonderful opportunity of reading and reviewing this fabulous book.OH.MY.GOD! What a great book! It just took my breath away, literally. The total concept of this book is unique like the author's other books and the plot is well thought and planned out and I liked the way the characters fit perfectly within the plot.The writing style of the author is unique as well and it will take you to the world of Mike, a teenager whose major problem is that he has visions about death and destruction but he manages to keep it a secret and live the life of a high school senior and skate boarder until a stranger Nadia steps into his life and the story takes a whirlwind turn and all the beliefs and known things falls apart.The cute romance that developed through out the story maintained it's pace perfectly not making it a so-called love at the first moment and then all you do is jump about having sex! That's ridiculous. As the feelings of Mike towards his best friend Anita develops and changes from mere friendship to much more it makes the read a mesmerizing one.The action scenes are great and the suspense that the author painfully kept till the end was really annoying and made me anxious to know the end. The mystery is superb and the slow revelations of Nadia's intentions and her background really spiced it up for me.All in all a great read and would recommend it to ya all. A total page turner and a new take on the YA paranormal fantasy genre which will change or at least influence your viewpoints regarding this genre. So grab your copy and enjoy this gripping read!
