Space travel, protector, mankind, soul mates, who can ask for anything better in a storyline?  As a reviewer I can truly say that I have my favorite genres to read.  Science fiction/fantasy hasn't been at the top of my "to be read" pile in a very long time.  What caught my attention at first glance, was the detailed cover.  The dark background with the prominent two people looking ahead.  To what exactly?  A new life?  Changes in humanity?  Or simply searching for answer.What do you do when your world is changed forever?  The path you were destined to take is blocked by obstacles that you can't seem to get by.  The person you were destined to be with, is no longer in existence.  Lastly, the life and world you once knew is now in jeopardy.  Blood Crown grabbed me at the very first chapter.  The events were vivid and the scenes painted pictures in my mind that immediately took me to their world.  Any writing that grabs and tugs at me from the very beginning is great sign that major awesomeness is on the way.I enjoy the writing shift to multiple points of view in a novel, something many authors are leaning towards.  Ms. Cross has done it right with Blood Crown.  There are many moments of heartache, pain, passion, but above all determination.  Nothing about this storyline is predictable.  Blood Crown is a unique read, and that's what I love about it.  The main characters Serantha and Nicolai are on a mission.  You will want to hear their story.  You will want to live it.  Will they embrace the challenge and continue to keep their true life locked away as the place they once knew crumbles?  Or will they except the challenge to awake and face the what lies ahead?
