Sacrificed in Shadow-the first book in SM Reine's latest series: Ascension, takes on a whole new flavor while giving us the tastes we've grown to love from her Descent and Moon series.The storyline flowed smoothly, the character cross-over felt genuine, and the author did a fantastic job at creating thrills, chills and frustration from beginning to end. Should we love her or hate her for creatively taking us hostage? She captured our attention and held us there by appealing to our sense of adventure, magic, camaraderie, violence, mystery and dare I say it, love and romance.The sign of a great writer is their talent in telling a story that has the reader so caught up in the story's world, they find themselves cheering and yelling out loud during different moments in the book.I'd like to tell you it's smooth sailing and everything gets all wrapped up in a neat, little package with a pretty bow at the end, but this is Sara Reine's work we're talking about here...ain't gonna happen. This thrill ride has only just left the station, folks.
