First and foremost, I'm not a fan of stereotypical novels, so you can imagine my giddiness when I've read the plot of The Child of Mystery: Chains of Darkness 1 by Eve Hathaway. It's totally unique and well-written! Granted, the book is kind of short since this is the first volume of the series, but it's thrilling enough that it will make you feel anxious about the next part because you want to know what happened to our main leads, Melinda and Caleb.I'm a big paranormal fan so any books out of the extraordinary really makes me excited. This book is about a young girl, Melinda, an orphan who was kind of adopted by her only living relatives, who are members of Christian Knights, a really complicated cult that has the power to kill her if she tries to escape. She's going to get married with Old Man Herman - scratch that - she needs to marry him, or else she'll definitely be in a dangerous place. The worst part is she's only 15, and she'll be the third wife of that man. Not to mention there's Caleb, a guy that had to be an angel since Melinda has this gift of seeing the person's real demeanor; imprisoned by the elders in the barn. She wants to save him, but she doesn't know what to do, all she can think of is their connection. And you know what happens when you made up your mind about a thing. There's also a book preview at the end of the book too. All-in-all, this was a good read and I can't wait to read the next volume of this series.
