UNDONE is an exciting, fast-paced novella told from Ben Michaels' perspective that bridges the gap between the events that took place in book one, UNRAVELING, and those that take place in UNBREAKABLE, the final book in the series.The story also gives readers a quick peek at events in Ben's life that took place prior to the start of UNRAVELING up through everything that readers had experienced through Janelle's eyes in that book.While much of the earlier part of the story had already been revealed, UNDONE let's readers see just how Ben felt about those things that happened, how he reacted and just how important Janelle was to him.The beginning of the story jumps rather quickly from moment to moment, only allowing for a glimpse, but the pace slows a bit to allow readers to connect to the new events, those exclusive to this novella.Where the first part of the story offers a heartwarming and heartbreaking look at Ben's life, the latter part of the story adds excitement and suspense to the mix. It introduces new characters, reveals that not all is as was expected for Ben and Eli, and sets the stage for things to come.For those that read this story in sequence, the ending leaves off at a place in the story that will make them anxious to find out what happens next. For those that read it after both full-length novels, while there won't be that same level of anticipation, it may just prompt a re-read of that next book.UNDONE is a must for those that want to take a longer look at the world, to find out exactly what happened with Ben and Eli before Janelle's arrival, or to get to know a little bit more about Ben - his feelings about Janelle, his attempts to return home, and his reasons for what he did after he got there.And for those that wish to continue the story for just a little bit longer, this eNovella also includes a short two-chapter sneak peek at UNBREAKABLE.
