Review: A NICE, QUICK READ
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 10 9, 2013
I haven't yet read "For Darkness Shows the Stars" but I've seen it getting a lot of good reviews everywhere, so I was happy to download this from Amazon when it was free for Kindle. During the first half of this quick read, I felt a little as though I stepped into the middle of the story and missed out on a lot of Kai's history with Elliot, but I soon realized this is only the prequel to "For Darkness Shows the Stars" and was relieved to know we'll find out more about Elliot and Kai in the first book. I enjoyed this novella immensely and in the span of twenty minutes I really got to know and understand Kai's character and his motivations. I'm a little weary of reading another dystopian book as the last ones I've read turned out to be rather formulaic with nothing new to add to this genre, but from what I can tell from the prequel, that might probably not be the case with this series. "Among the Nameless Stars" is well worth the read.
