I liked the premise a lot! A fiction that can make us question one's reality is always a good work! Can't wait to read more of it.

Science fiction genre is not my cup of tea. Therefore, I skip this for the time being.Nevertherless, this is a fantastic review! :tiphat:

Great review! This definitely piqued my interest, I really want to read this book now to find out what happened to Six, and what was the unpredictable ending you mentioned. The idea that a creature out there controls disasters and the people who die in them is definitely an interesting one. Thank you for sharing!

Sounds like a great book about the nature of reality and the interplay of chance and fate; I may give this one a look. Thanks for the review, JKO. :techie-studyingbrown:

This storyline is absolutely amazing. I am really amazed at the serene and appealing nature of the storyline. Well, in a dog-eat-dog world this remains an arguable imagination. I like everything about the story: the love and synergy between Six and Eighty- nine, and the worrisome reality. It makes one reflect on the nature of good and evil. Great review!

It seems as if the main characters are guardian angels in reverse, a unique concept for sure. The book is most definitely geared toward a specific audience that enjoys paranormal adventures and fantasy literature. From the review, the story appears to be gratifying and well-crafted. Congratulations to the author on receiving BOTD honors!

This seems like a unique storyline with great characters. The relationship between Six and Eighty-nine is worth emulating. I will love to read this book to get more lessons from it. Nice review.

This is definitely a captivating book. I am still wondering what Six did and how comes a luna could die. Thanks for the informative review.

Good Job. I can also say that this story(the eclipsed) is based on relationship between Ideal and Real things.

Great review! I love this type of book! This seems like a really great science- fiction book that I definitely will be adding to my shelf. Very intriguing to think about there being a being that watches over disasters and those marked for death.

Six and Eighty nine as people named sounds funny. It’s nice to note that the plot is unlike most sci-fi books.
