 Imagine a world where children are made into monsters, where dictators cheat death and where a line of deviant Amazon clones work to pacify and enslave whole populations. Then imagine this world found a way to invade yours.

Review

Wow. That is really what I have to say about this book. It was absolutely nothing like I expected it to be. And I really cannot say it enough how much I enjoyed it.

I tend to scan the blurbs and focus more on the cover and title when I look at books before I select them to read. That is what I did this time. The name caught my attention and I thought, what the hell, lets give it a try. And I am so glad I did.

I cannot say enough good things about this book. I honestly thought it was going to be a science fiction erotica based on the cover and title but that wasn't the case at all.

And the use of were-bears was unique and fresh. Beau and Jen had a great story, and there were not a whole lot of predictable moments, which as a reader I liked.

It is a time in the future where we can essentially jump through space and time and end up in otherworlds that are existing at the same time our Earth is. A lot of deadly, scary and unpleasant worlds. 

And at the end its a fight to save man kind from the vicious were-bears. Creatures who would rip us apart and feast on our flesh, or convert us and employ us to kill our breatheren. 

Ella-Nessa is a great character, and the twins do a remarkable job of having distincly different personalities. Which is hard sometimes as an author to give very unique voices to such alike beings.

This book was long, and a few parts of it felt like it drug out but I understood that was needed to get past the points where they were and futher the story.

It was an easy read, I mean, I ddin't have to put forth a lot of effort to understand and enjoy. Even though it wasn't the easiest of subjects to write about.

Overall, this book is a 5 star winner because I have to say, it kept me on the edge of my seat!!!

Andrew Michael Schwarz grew up in frozen Minnesota with frequent day trips to Narnia. He knew he had become "one of them" when he found himself in an e-bay bidding war for a Tom Baker Dr. Who Scarf. He writes other worlds fiction because he finds those worlds more inhabitable than this one. You can find him lurking at any of the following links:
