The Genesis Project Prophecy of the Seven by C L De Leon4 StarsReighlyn believed her father had been killed when she was four years old, but when her mother received a note that she believed was from him, the message was too worrisome to ignore. ‘The militia are coming to collect the gifted’. Reighlyn had known she was different for a couple of years now, but until her mum confirmed her father had also been ‘gifted’ and these abilities had been passed down to her, she wasn’t quite sure what was going on. Now the only thing for them to do is run, find a safe place and hide. On their journey they meet other gifted people and eventually end up at The Sonora Caves where a group of gifted are waiting and planning. It has been prophesised that a group of seven will champion those in need and basically save the world. Reighlyn learns she is one of the seven and is forced into a leadership role.The Genesis Project is a fast paced quick read and promises to be a really exciting series. A totally fresh idea about people with supernatural powers and a war that begins when the Militia want to control the gifted and force them to become soldiers against their will.I enjoyed the story it kept me hooked from the start and I completed the read in one sitting, I found the writing style a little difficult to get into at first but I either got used to it or the author got into her groove as the story unfolded. I look forward to continuing the series.Copy supplied for review
