Shattered (The Torzial Affair Book 1) by Via Mari – Review by Maura Harper
Shattered by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Five words I would use to describe this book:
Layered
Complex
Sexy
Intriguing
Grandiose
SHATTERED is a spinoff of The Prestian Series and I enjoyed the continuing threads from the first series. I’m not sure I would have been as understanding of it and the complex world surrounding the main characters if I hadn’t read the first series.
The story is written in such a way that I found myself questioning what was going on. I started to side with outsiders for a few minutes because they made a great case (I know this doesn’t make sense, but you will understand it when you read the book). THAT IS THE SIGN OF A GOOD STORY… My wavering faith in the “truth” kept me turning the pages.
There are a lot of characters in this story, both main and secondary, and at times I had to remember who was who and who worked for which company. There is a briskness about the story that made it feel like it was constantly in motion. The story moved along in a way that the end always seemed just around the next corner. This story actually goes to unexpected places.
I look forward to reading the next story in this trilogy.
