How do I sum this book up simply without raving on for days! I haven’t read a fantasy book for quite some time and this book was a fantastic way to get back into the genre. The author created such unique characters and coupled that with a really creative storyline that you simply wanted, no make that needed, to keep reading no matter what! I was hooked from start to finish and this author definitely has a new fan in me. What a fantastic start to the series! I sure can’t wait for more.

I really enjoyed this book. The story was engaging and kept me gripped from the beginning. The author does an amazing job with the characters making them all unique in their own way. This story is set at a time of protest and upheaval but instead of it being about race its about people having powers. These people are known as the Unhidden and as the days and weeks progress more and more people are realising they have these gifts but no idea how to use them.

We join the Byrne family who have set up their home as a school to help all these new people learn and master their gifts but as the protests and uprising of people wanting rid of the Unhidden community they are forced into hiding.
Now they all have to work together to stand against the humans otherwise the Unhiddens could be destroyed forever.

The story finds the characters in a world of chaos. Suddenly some people are discovering that they have hidden powers and the rest of humanity feels threatened. The group PEM- Pure Earther Movement-has formed and they oppose the PHAE- Protectorate for unHidden Advancement and Education- and want to see all the people with powers killed or imprisoned. The people with powers are the minority and are feeling the pressure to protect themselves against attacks. The story revolves around a core of 6 people with major powers, the leadership, and a host family. Can they all band together to overcome hatred and curb violent attacks against them? Or will they be crushed under the onslaught of the hatred that others have toward them?

This was an interesting first book. There is a lot of history provided over each of the core characters and multiple points of view given. I liked learning about the characters but could have had a little less, or maybe fewer characters of whom I got in depth knowledge of. However, I do feel like it was a great set up for book 2. I would think that I will be able to pick up the second book and continue with their journey.

I did enjoy the Ireland aspect to the book. Having been there, I was able to easily envision where the characters were and the countryside!

During these times of rioting and protesting, the Unhidden are forced into hiding. Follow the Byrne family and a group of rag tag Unhidden individuals as they navigate their new powers!

This is for sure a book to put in small words, is a must read! This very early on in my reading became one of my favorite books hands down! The writing was amazing and the flow was perfect, and the story and the characters? Spot on! This was a book everyone should read and enjoy! Not one to be missed!

The story had a god flow, and characters I enjoy very much. Whether I liked the characters or new they were not ones I would not root for, I still liked them for who they were and for some, who they became to be. The story was very creative and visual effects on my mind as I read was more amazing that I could have imagine. The author really put it all in when writing this book and brought it to life with excitement and beyond amazing work! This is a new book in a series, and I for sure can not wait for the next one to see what is to happen next! It was sooooo good! Loved it truly! Honestly couldn’t put it down!

Amazing read and I highly do recommend this author with no doubt. The book is a first ins a series so great time to start reading it! I highly recommend the book/series! A must read for sure! Don’t pass it up!

This is the first book in this series and what a great start it is. I have enjoyed this author from the first book I picked up. One of the things I enjoy about this author is her writing skills and attention to details that make her stories come to life. This book is no different. This is a fantasy story that is hard to put down. It is an engaging story that made me laugh in parts and certainly had me coming back for more. I had no problems connecting with the character as they are creative and unique. They are supportive of each other which made the story easy to read. This is a story that has a little bit of everything in it as well as had me sitting on the edge of my seat. I enjoyed the growth of the plot as well as the characters that made the story entertaining to read. This is a great well rounded story that I can’t wait to see what the next book of this series brings. I highly recommend this book.

This book is so beautifully written! The descriptions were so vibrantly authored that it made me think of Tolkien’s illustrative language. I really enjoyed the way the point of view alternated which let me as reader understand more characters. I also adored the realistic and genuine relationships and the way the characters interacted with each other. Learning the backstory of characters is so interesting to me, seeing why they react to different situations the way they do, because I have an understanding of who they are. This book is just fabulous and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys some modern fantasy!

Taylor is barely holding her anxiety at bay. With scales growing on her body and shocking magic now at her command, the teacher flees after being outed by a student and attacked by an angry mob. And after arriving at a safehouse on a farm in Ireland for training and protection, she feels unprepared for her first mission to neutralize an explosive threat.

Vietnam vet Maximilian Hurley subdues his demons with drink. So when the troubled pilot loses his play to a mysterious fire, and an Unhidden agent comes to Australia to recruit him, he doesn’t have much to lose. Teaming up with Anna, the tough-talking Aussie battles through his PTSD as they save Cork from a devastating bombing.

As the group of talents grows to a core crew of six, Anna and Max discover there’s little peace as a coalition of xenophobic extremists rises against those with Unhidden Blood. And now their combined superpowers might be the only thing standing in the way of their total extermination…

Can Anna, Max, and the squad stem a tsunami of chaos and death?
