For the first time ever I am at a loss for words or at least words I consider the caliber that are used by Rebekah Turner. I was blown away by her writing style. Chaos Bound is a feast for the mind. Example the description of the opening day “Spring had bloomed in the bustling city of Harken, and instead of the usual rain, or tepid fog, the narrow, crooked streets had been flooded with gentle, golden sunshine. For a city used to constant downpours and overcast skies, the unexpected weather was viewed with some suspicion and considered most unseemly.”I often read paranormal but not dark ones necessarily like this one. In fact, this story would be hard to describe. It is a fantasy with lots of action, politics, suspense, books of magic and a little romance. All of this takes place within a rich, complicated world where Lora Blackgoat lives. Along with her are colorful, complex and flawed characters consisting of demons, half- angels, succubus and satyrs, to name a few. It also seems to be also on the lines of a post-apocalyptic, dystopian society; dark days indeed. While I wouldn’t want to live here, it is a fascinating place to visit within the confides of my easy chair.My only complaint, more for myself than the author is that I wished I had started with book one. I have gotten it now, Chaos Born. Hope that Lore’s adventures, (disasters according to Seth) continue in a book 3.Highly recommend.Copy provided by NetGalley for an honest review.
