Review: 4 1/2 out of 5 starsUnseen is the most wonderful follow up to Unknown, the first book in The Elements trilogy and begins where it left off.Princess Kyla of Taramon along with her best friend and fellow seeker Jethro continue their search for the missing elements in order to fulfil a forbidden prophecy. Their trek takes them through treacherous terrain and life threatening obstacles in order to save the kingdoms from looming darkness. The action packed and fast-paced journey they had to make kept me on the edge of my seat anxious to see what would happen.There were many intense, suspenseful moments that made for an enthralling read, with the dangers they had to face with the elements surrounding them as well as the dark forces of Ashan's Army; we get the perfect mix of action, betrayal, challenges and suspense.Both Kyla and Jethro showed a great deal of strength and courage in this book and continue to develop. The forbidden romance causes some tension but progresses despite Kyla being betrothed to Athra, the chemistry and sweet moments between them was perfect.I have enjoyed the strong world-building and captivating plot right from the onset, the prophecy is fascinating and the journey the characters had to take and what they had to endure made for a fast-paced read; I was eager to see the outcome of Kyla and Jethro's quest and I still adore Adamar and Mya and the wisdom they shared plus new additions Eshron and Cori.Having read a few book by Melissa Pearl now, her writing just gets better and better and the details she provides draws you into the vivid setting and the story which at times was quite emotional, I couldn't flick the paghe fast enough during some scenes.Overall, Unseen is a gripping sequel in The Elements Trilogy filled with danger, action and a sweet budding romance. The ending left me gaping so I am definitely eager to read the final book it the trilogy, Unleashed.Thank-you kindly to Melissa Pearl for the opportunity to read and review Unseen.
