This is book five in the Relic Hunters series and can be read as a standalone. The chapters are small enough and easy to be digested for a young adult audience. I felt so much confused as the chapters go back and forth in time, even though they do give a heading at the beginning of each one. There’s plenty of adventure and the weaving of Greek mythology throughout the plot was done well. Ferguson creates attention to detail to keep the reader engrossed in the story. It’s a call to adventure readers will enjoy.

This was an intriguing start to what looks like it will be a really good series. The characters are very interesting and the story really captured my attention. The story has a number of twists and turns and even some mystery. It will be very interesting to see just where the story is going and how each of the characters will evolve and how their story develops. I enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more of the series.

C. Reigh – Review by Cindy Rushin
This book utterly captured my attention from the moment I ready the blurb and yet nothing could have prepared me for how emotional I actually found this story to be! I loved Marcus and Mei Li. Their connection, their story and everything they were battling made them easily some of the best characters I have read about. Everything in this story was so well told. It was artfully crafted by an author who clearly not only has a passion for writing by the skills to produced an amazing book. As soon as I started reading this book, I could not wait to see how things would turn out. I had to read it all in one sitting. This is a fantastic story and I would highly recommend it.

This was a really emotional, raw read which covered so many topics from young forbidden love to secrets about immigration, pressure to confirm and do what your parents wish all the while putting your wants to the side. This book is beautifully written and I like how each chapter is told from either Marcus or Mei so you get the here the story from both of them.
Marcus has everything going for him. A heartthrob, great grades and a full scholarship with football. He could have any girl he wants, however his dad has put a stipulation in place. If he doesn’t get distracted by girls he will get a bike. So far this hasn’t been a problem until Mei.
Mei has family issues of her own. Her family have already got her paired up with Nick who is a lot older than her. However he is the way she can get access to the culinary school she so wishes to join. There is also something dark and sinister about Nick that by displeasing him could place her whole family at risk. Mei had settled her mind to the fact that Nick was her future until Marcus came and showed her another way.
Both of them feel a strong connection and as their secret communications increase these feelings grow. Do they even stand a chance to be together or are they setting themselves up for heartbreak? Can two people from different backgrounds and circumstances really work? My heart broke several times reading this book as they both fight to be with each other, will they succeed? You’ll have to read it to find out.

What an amazing story. I was pulled in shortly after I started it. This will have you feeling all the emotions. There are secrets being hdiden from these two. All they want is to be able to go on with their lifes and things are so out of their control. Can they make the right decision? Is it worth the cost. The story is written in such a beautiful way. It’s engaging and you can’t put it down once you start. You want to know what happens with them. I can’t recommend this story enough. I would love to read more from these two authors.

BOOKBUB – The Other Side of Together by Emily Cox and Nicole Allen
An evocative story of first love, possibility, and rewriting our destinies, this YA romance captures the ache of Laura Nowlin with a romantic innocence reminiscent of Jenny Han.
Marcus is destined for big things. He’s a star soccer player, a straight-A student, and gorgeous beyond the hopes of most girls. Especially since they’re off limits. Because of his detective dad’s painful past with women, Marcus made a bet with him to avoid girls until after high school. So far, so good.
Mei Li’s world is anything but bright. She’s a pawn in a dangerous game to keep her and her family in America but dreams of a very different life. However, dreams turn to fear when she discovers the guy she’s supposed to trust with her heart is more disturbed than she could ever imagine.
Even though Mei Li and Marcus live around the corner from each other in San Francisco’s Chinatown, the only thing they have in common is a trolley stop. Until the day they step through the same shop door and into a new possibility.
What starts as secret notes and texts quickly becomes a desperate attempt to be together. But together is impossible. Opposing futures, a tangle of dark connections, and one big secret come between them, forcing them to risk their safety for love or leave the possibility of together behind forever.
We’re Emily Cox and Nicole Allen, and our book The Other Side of Together will be released in January 2024 by Monster Ivy Publishing. We’ve been co-writing “Clean Steam” YA novels for twelve years and have been picked up, dropped, hopeful, and discouraged but always fearless.
Emily Cox is a fast-walking cloud watching, big thinker who believes in aliens, has superior hearing, a mostly-titanium face, and a rhyming maiden and married name (Box-Cox). She lives in Utah in a house of all boys and two fluffy writing assistants. She had a hard time choosing only one dream job so she has three: counselor, teen social/emotional wellness coach, and author. She loves to plan all kinds of trips then take them, read multiple books at a time, and explore new places, cultures, and ideas. The inside of her head is the craziest place she’s ever dared explore.
Nicole Allen is a crime podcast junkie, travel enthusiast, and Diet Coke addict who not-so-secretly hopes heaven looks exactly like Disneyland’s Main Street U.S.A. She fills her head with and likes to share useless, random facts and news headlines, has crazy-vivid dreams almost nightly, believes in karma, but is skeptical about dinosaurs (sorry paleontologists). When she’s not writing novels, she loves acting in and watching live theater, is president of a local theater company and runs a youth theater group. She resides in Utah with her supportive rockstar husband (and webmaster), three amazing kids, and two adorable cats.

Relic Hunters: Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Series) by Martin Ferguson is a great young adult series

Blood of the Dragon (Relic Hunters Book 4) by Martin Ferguson is a great adventure series
Adam Hunter and the Relic Hunters arrive at the abandoned Poenari Castle in Romania in response to an urgent cry for assistance. They discover that myth and history mix more than ever in the former residence of Vlad the Impaler, the most notorious mass killer in recorded history. Adam and his group quickly discover that they are the ones being chased rather than the hunters when their deeds bring back a villain long thought to be contained only in stories. Nowhere is immune from the darkness’s pursuit, not even the British Museum. It follows them across the world. They fall one by one until Adam is left to face the terrifying fury of the Blood of the Dragon by himself.

Eagle of the Empire (Relic Hunters) by Martin Ferguson is a great young adult series.
Sixteen-year-old Adam Hunter learns that the stories and tales he was told as a child have more truth to them than he ever imagined when his brother vanishes abruptly. Adam has to discover the truth about the Roman Ninth Legion’s disappearance and locate its renowned Eagle Standard—an artifact of enigmatic, mythological power—in order to set his brother free. Adam enlists the assistance of the British Museum, whose eccentric Relic Hunters are adept at locating and preserving treasures all across the world. They must go quickly, though, as they are not the only ones looking for the artifact. Adam and his comrades must battle an immortal tyrant who wants to take possession of the Eagle of the Empire in order to save their brother’s life.

After Matt was found and hurt in the previous book, he was told he needed to take time to recover before he was allowed to go back in the field. While this is happening, they offer Adam a temporary position within the team just until Matt is back on his feet. That means Adam is back and causing havoc everywhere he goes yet again. Only this time, it’s in Egypt.
After a bunch of sandstorms hit Egypt, a giant pyramid is uncovered. Never discovered or entered by anyone in this day and age. After losing the lives of those they sent inside, Egypt realizes that they may need outside help and sends for the best of the best and the British Museum is one of the teams who answered the call. With traps, poison, scorpions and maybe even a banshee, it is near impossible to get inside to explore. This does not stop Adam and the crew, they will find a way in and discover the lost secrets no matter what.
Again, the author wrote the book with 2 different timelines, the present and this time about ancient Egypt. I have always been a fan of mythology so I was excited to learn that the past was written about Isis, Set, Anubis and other gods and goddesses from that time. I don’t know that much about the Egyptian Myths so I was excited to get to learn about them. On to the next book of the series!

Bastian Academy is a school for the 7 different sovereigns which consist of different species. Wolves, humans, fae, and more! This book mostly focuses on a human princess, Amelia, and a wolf prince, Dane.
When the duo were just mere children, they were betrothed due to a treaty between the two kingdoms. Amelia wants out of her arranged marriage especially since her heart belongs to another but once Dane meets her, he decides then and there that she is his whether she likes it or not.
Amelia will stop at nothing to try to end her engagement, including potential treason. Dane wants to be the best fighter on campus but having Amelia around is proving to be a distraction for him.
This being the first time that the 7 kingdoms are together, not all goes peacefully and Amelia and Dane have to put their differences aside to save not only themselves but others as well.
The book is written from multiple point of views giving you a glimpse into the budding romance of the main characters but also some outside plot. I really liked Dane’s character and was rooting for these enemies to become lovers from day one.
After this intriguing introduction to the series, I will most likely look into the rest of the series!

C. Reigh – Review by Santana Hicks
This is the first book I read by Martin Ferguson, despite being the fifth book in the Relic Hunter Series. While technically this book COULD be read as a standalone, due to the character building and storylines from previous books that I’m assuming contribute to the reader’s understanding of this book, I would highly recommend reading them in order. (This is not to say it can’t be done, however there were many mentions of previous characters, etc. that I wish I would have had the previous stories to outline). At any rate! I thoroughly enjoyed the marrying of Greek mythology with current artifact hunters, and especially enjoyed the interlacing of well known Greek myths with the tales of the lost city of Atlantis, a myth I know much less about. The relic hunters themselves were fun to “get to know” in the story, brothers trying to hunt down their father’s last mission (along with the very recent discovery that they unknowingly were following in their father’s footsteps). Most importantly, I’m dying to read the next one because it definitely didn’t resolve here! Plan on reading book six FOR SURE!

This is the first book in the series called Wolf. It is going to be a great series I can tell already. Each book will focus on a different couple and this couple is Princess Amelia of Avonlee and Prince Dane a wolf shifter. They are all in an academy where people from the Seven Kingdom have all joined together. Once enemies of each other are they really going to live peacefully now or is something sinister happening underneath the surface.
Amelia and Dane have been promised to each other as a way to keep the alliance between the wolfshifters and the Avonlee people secure. However Amelia has her sights set else where and is planning on changing Prince Danes mind about the whole arranged marriage. Dane however has no intention of ending the agreement when as soon as he meets her he knows she is his fated mate. Now he is more determined than ever to show her that despite their arrangement they are actually fated mates. Amelia however is very stubborn and determined to push Dane away at every turn. Will Amelia realised the truth or will her constant refusal lead to a breakdown between Amelia’s family and Dane’s pack?
The author does an incredible job of weaving this story full of adventure and magic. There are so many creative characters from wolf’s to dragons and witches to Fae. Each character is unique and I can’t wait to see and learn more about them as the series progresses.

Betrayal of the Gods is Book Five in the Relic Hunters Series. It is a YA adventure with drama, action, mystery, intrigue, and danger. The story is superbly written and full of historical detail, Greek mythology and folklore. Brothers Matt and Adam must race against time to try to solve the mystery around what happened to their father. In this adventure the brothers find themselves without the help of their team and aided only by their wit and skills to solve the mystery. A fast-paced story with twists and turns that will keep you riveted and have you reading until the final pages. I highly recommend this book and this series!

Betrayal of the Gods is the 5th book in the series, and as with all the others, can be completely stand alone. I will be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started the first one, but I was hooked literally from the beginning. I finished Eagle of the Empire and immediately dove into the next.. and then the next.. and then the next! They are easy to read, totally captivating and I cannot put them down. The blend of POVs between the past and present is amazing. The historical accuracy that also meets fiction, fantasy and what could have been is such a cool twist and perspective. I love how the past adventures and POV provides their own story in and of itself. Then it meets with the current timeline and you get a completely different story that builds on the past of ancient times.
This book takes us to a timeline of Greek heroes and tragedies, battles in Troy, and famous lost cities. I loved exploring the Mediterranean with Matt and Adam and seeing the past come to life as you get the back and forth POV between both timelines. I cannot wait to see what happens next! Will they find out what happened to their father? Will they truly find Atlantis and if so, what will it be like? WHAT on earth is going to happen with the UN and the museum?! So much going on in a single story! Completely hooked!

Blood of the Dragon is the 4th book in the Relic Hunters series and does not disappoint! Such an incredible retelling of Dracula. I am completely fascinated by that tale and I love the unique storytelling abilities provided by the author here! There were Easter eggs in the previous book that alluded to a future vampire tale, and I’m so glad the story was brought to life sooner than I had expected! Such a unique retelling from Vlad’s youth and the backstory on how the monster came to be. I really loved that aspect!
That combined with Adam and Matt fighting the present day Dracula just added a whole other element of intrigue and suspense. Loved it, definitely recommend!

Curse of the Sands is the 2nd book int he Relic Hunters series, but gives enough backstory that can be read as a stand alone, but also doesn’t bog down the current storyline. The 2nd book finds Adam battling ancient Egyptian curses, exploring pyramids and saving the world. The shifting POV between current timeline and the past still fascinates me with the accuracy and the fiction blend, and it’s almost like getting two stories in one. I love learning and reading about ancient Egypt and this was a story idea that I had never encountered before, so providing a very unique view point on something that has been written about for ages. Truly a great story!

War of the Damned was incredible! I love history and the back and forth POV between the current timeline and the past is so fun. I love the historical accuracy mixed with the fiction of what could have been. This is the second book in the series, but provides enough backstory that you really could read it stand alone and be fine. The 2nd dives into WW2 and the conspiracy theory of the Nazi SS soldiers searching to mythical legends and fantastical, mystical ways to enhance their “superior race”. Such a fun read. 10/10 recommend.

I absolutely loved this book! I haven’t read anything by this author before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. This book is great for YA and my son will love it. This book is like Uncharted meets Gladiator. While definitely a work of fiction, the author takes great care to make sure things are historically accurate as possible- I really got caught up in the adventure and immediately dove into the second book!

Wolf is the first book in the Kingdom of 7 Sovereigns series, an incredibly enthralling romance academy read. I have to mention how beautiful the cover is, and that it really caught my eye! Definitely made it hard to resist that age-old saying of not judging a book by its cover! I loved this book so much, the character development was just perfect! I haven’t had the pleasure of reading R.C. Reigh’s work until now, but I absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on more of this series!! Just a fantastic read!

C. Reigh – Review by Tausha Treadway
Adam Hunter is a sixteen year old boy who lives a boring life, always getting into trouble to make his life more exciting. That is until he gets news that his older brother, Matt, is missing. Turns out Matt was living a double life. Adam thought his brother worked a boring desk job. That was far from the truth. He actually was a relic hunter working for a British Museum. Adam may be the only one who can find his brother through encrypted clues left behind in Matt’s journal he kept.
Matt was looking for the lost Eagle of the ninth legion. Something that was thought of as just a myth. Adam leaves behind everything he knows and makes his way to Rome to try to find the Eagle and his brother. He isn’t the only one on the hunt for the Eagle though and the people also relic hunting are very dangerous. With the help from Matt’s team at the museum, Adam realizes he must not fail. Lives are at stake.
The author wrote this book in two different timelines, the present and back sometime around 70 AD. I personally am not a huge fan of roman history but I liked how the author wrote from the perspective of someone from that time, plus the present day was full of mystery and action that kept me engaged. I also enjoyed Adam’s character growth. He lived in the shadow of his older brother and felt unworthy but since Matt’s saving was up to Adam, he had time to live up to his potential and grow up in a way. I am excited to see what the Hunter brothers are up to next.

This is the 5 th book in The Relic Hunters Series. Although each book can be read as a standalone, you have more knowledge and background of the storylines and characters if you read them in order. It’s been a while since I read the first book but it didn’t take long before I was sucked into Matt and Adam’s adventure. I especially like reading about the different locations the brothers travel to and search for the relic. The world the author created is action packed, keeps the story moving, and we get to know these characters and why they hunt for the relics.

First the cover caught my eye then the synopsis piqued my interest. By the end of the first chapter I was fully hooked. I could not put the book down. It started as just one more chapter before bed and ended with finishing the book a few hours past when I should have been asleep. There is adventure, rivals, academy setting, and a unique cast of characters. Bonus, enemies to rivals trope.
I am definitely a fan of this series and cannot wait to get lost in the next book in the series.

Relic Hunters: Betrayal of the Gods (Relic Hunters Series) by Martin Ferguson . This is the 5th installment in the Relic Hunter series and it follows 2 brothers Matt and Adam. They are continuing their mission to find the lost city of Atlantis. The brothers are facing something they’ve never had to deal with in a battle and that is they have no equipment or supplies to help them fight the battle of their lives. They have to rely on their skills and smarts as they fight. The boys learn so much about Greek myths thru this story and they learn they don’t know nearly as much as they thought they did. There is a side story about Princess Alaina of Atlantis and her fight in the Trojan War as well. This is a fast paced young adult story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and you will want to finish it when you start. I highly recommend reading these in order to help you better understand the story line and characters.

Kingdom of the Ocean is the sixth and final book in the Relic Hunters series by Martin Ferguson. This was a bit of a bittersweet read for me knowing I was diving into the conclusion of this superb series, but also desperately needing to know how everything plays out in the end after everything they/we have been through. As with the other instalments in this series, this is a fantastic young adult action-adventure with wonderful characters, treasure hunting, the quest for Atlantis, family friendship, historical details, mythology, drama, mystery, danger, investigation, tension, an intriguing & complex plot, high stakes, and a race against time. This instalment picks up where the previous book left off, so if you are yet to read that book, or are yet to start the series, then I highly recommend that you do so before starting out on this final adventure. There are really important details, bridging storyline/arch, character introductions, backstories, and other important information contained in the previous books which you need to know in order to fully appreciate this fantastic instalment, as well as the series as a whole. Mr. Ferguson has done a fantastic job of delivering an exciting and fitting conclusion to the series, while ensuring that the various threads that have spanned the series were all tied up. But, I am ever hopeful that there are many more possible Relic Hunter adventures yet to come in the future — as even though the story and threads were tied up (for these six books and one novella)- things are left quite ‘open’ at the end…….. suggesting (at least to my ever-hopeful little heart anyway) that there are many more treasures/legends/myths/adventure left for the team to pursue I will again mention that this series would make a really great movie, TV series, or adventure/RPG game. Highly recommend for anyone who loves YA epic adventures, history, treasure hunting quests, and mysteries. Looking forward to seeing what Mr. Ferguson has in store for us next! Happy Reading…
