The Prophecy is a fast paced, riveting story that captures you from the first page! Star like any teenager has issues, but unlike regular teenagers when Star gets anger or work up something always happens. These "incidents" always end up hurting someone or something. Because of a particularly bad episode her family relocates to Shiloh, Virginia. Star finds that her emotions are getting stronger and harder to control, which is never good. When she comes across an ancestors journal that explains other members of her family that experienced the same things, Star is captivated. Finally someone, even if it is an inanimate object, that understands, that can shed some light on her situation.As the story progresses, Star learns that she must overcome some really intense odds to control her "powers" or she could end up unleashing something that will destroy mankind. Will Star be able to control it or will she let the darkness take over?Desiree DeOrto has created a fascinating story that gives a new meaning to anger management. Beside Star that are a lot of supporting characters that really help Star in many different ways. Brandon and Rose with their sarcasm and barrels of laughs, and Gabe and Andrei and their understanding and desire for Star. And not to mention their pure swoonworthiness! Of course they both want Star, and they both fight in different ways to win her, it will be interesting to see who she chooses.Overall this is a very exciting read that will make you count down the days until book two! Add it to your collection today and you will not regret it!I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
