I am not a fan of historical fiction books though, the storyline and plots of the book sound interesting and tempting to read. It's a shame that typo errors made the book lose a star in its rating. However, I congratulate the author on being the book of the day.

:!2: :mrgreen2: This sounds really interesting, for dead pigs to resurrect, cars pulled back up over a cliff with telepathic powers.. I think its some kind of genetic mutations, though it sounds crazy, but there's a possibility, and I need to find out how that is possible. Even with Aaron the Lemurian.

Is Aaron a Lemurian? What is going to happen between him and Julissa? I think teenagers will easily relate to this sci-fi novel that is full action, mystery, and suspense. I hope the author fixes the editing and formatting issues. Thanks for your review!

Definitely yes to reading this series, but unfortunately not right now. I really like synopsis and that is not simply a story, but complicated many layered tale of some different world with its own history and culture. Shame it will be very time consuming to read entire series to start at the end of the year work rush.

This book is an intriguing science fiction novel. The birth of the New World is a matter that can be very interesting. I would love to read the book. Thanks for your review.

I enjoy sci-fi books and this one is definitely going on my 'to read' list. I like how the story is gripping and the ending leaves you wanting to read the next one. I do wish the books had another round of editing, though. Thanks for the great review!

The plot seems intriguing, but I prefer watching science fiction rather than reading. Thank you for the review

What a intriguing storyline especially the aspect of dead pig coming back to life and other mysterious events happening! Its indeed a shocker :-)
Can't fill in my mind what would eventually between innocent Julissa and Alex, did he hurt her as her friend acclaimed?
This is a nice review.

That certainly would have made biology class more interesting, It's amazing how the world around us can influence our emotions. Thanks for a nice review.

Indeed! But I don't recall dissecting pigs in Biology. Only those pitiful frogs! I do agree that high school would be a fun time to reminisce.

My mind immediately went to the Frankenweenie movie directed by Tim Burton when you mentioned dead pigs come alive. This would be interesting for many readers, but not for me as I am not a big fan of science fiction. Thank you for the great review, however!

This series sounds interesting, I will keep an eye for this. The cover is nicely done, what caught my attention, was the mention of dead pigs coming back to life during class. Do they attack the students? Definitely worth check out this series.

What worked for me was the supernatural element in the story. Otherwise I didn't find the plotline gripping. Dead pigs coming alive and telepathy preventing the car from falling off the cliff were two things that stood out for me. I think I will be giving this one a pass.

I am not a fan of science fiction books but I gather from your review that this book is has a likable mix of action, mystery and suspense. I like books having this combination, and maybe I will give this one a thought. Thanks for your great review.
