Where do I even begin to talk about The Descended?
The alien monsters?
The secret community?
The magical powers?
The prophecies?
The found family?
The terror?
LOVED it all. Audrey is running scared, while her boyfriend creates a diversion for her to escape the monsters. Her saviour is the mysterious Mitch, who takes her to an elaborate underground bunker, where everything is kept secret and she knows she is not welcome. Her investigative reporter mind cannot rest so over the coming weeks and months it's her mission to uncover the secrets and odd goings on in the bunker. As Audrey's past, and Mitch's too, are revealed alongside the current events it all starts to make sense, but who could have guessed things would turn out this way?!
The twists were great, the pacing and action kept me on my toes. I was never sure what was going to happen next, including the ending. I'd definitely recommend reading if that sounds like your cup of tea.
I received an advanced copy but this are my own thoughts.
