What an Amazing job this author has done!  She masterfully crafted a truly Emotionally-charged tale that will keep you in its grip right up until you devour the last page!  I love to read a variety of genres but, the Paranormal/Supernatural genre is one of my absolute favorites. This novel was one of the BEST I have read in this genre so far.  It has everything an avid paranormal reader craves.  It has time travel, romance, adventure, Supernatural phenomenon, emotionally gripping scenes, Mystery, well developed characters that are automatically likable and easy for readers to connect with, and of course, the battle of good and evil. It was refreshing seeing the characters grow together as the pages keep turning.  I found this read to be intricately detailed bringing very vivid imagery to the forefront of one's mind. I love to delve into this authors' interpretation of the levels of reality and how to ride them out as well as how they each tie into one another on many different levels. I know that some people get kind of lost in all the details and the complete layout of each scene and may find it hard to follow, But for me it was a treat for the mind! I thirst for that detail as it is laid out...It feeds my thought process and makes me imagine being on another level all together.... It literally sucks me right into the moment. That really takes a skilled storyteller to keep my interest throughout the entire book. It is a page turner from the very beginning. I found the Characters to be very realistic and emotionally gripping. The Bond between Lyra and Zack  is both heartfelt and tragic. I, myself could read for pages upon pages of just detail filled imagery that sets the scene and mood...void of all conversation because my mind never stops and thrives off the depth of emotion and the vividness of the scenes. It is a thought provoking book that leaves one pondering the deeper levels of being and makes you take a step back to get a grip on the reality of what we call life. I found it both intoxicating to the senses and Spellbinding to the mind. I really think Lilly Mance did a tremendous job on this one. This is the first book I have read by this author but, I would certainly buy another one by her in this Genre! Brilliant work!!
