The Twin Prophecies: Rebirth

This was one of those books that I just could not put down. Seriously. I read it literally in ONE day. Ms. Perez took me to otherworldly places I have never been in her story. I found her story to be very original and I felt like I was right there with Jack and Violet as the story unfolded. I liked it so much that I downloaded the Kindle app on my 13 year old sons laptop so that I could re-read it WITH him. He and I are working our way through it together now and that is HUGE because he is not a big fan of reading, but he is LOVING this story! Anything that can get my son to read is an A++++ in my book! I cant wait for Book 2!!

Though it was geared towards a YA crowd I found myself caught up in the story line and truly disappointed when the book ended. I cant wait for the sequel! Jack and Violet are teenage characters that could turn into typical stereotypes but they retain a reality and likability throughout the book. The use of vampires, werewolves, fairies, witches and warlocks was smartly underdone to let the reader get to learn about the backstory of the teens. You know the other beings are there but they dont overshadow. Their supernatural abilities are brought to the foreground at the end, when the reader is comfortable with their presence. I cant wait to see how the next book develops everyone.

Its not often I read a fantasy book and enjoy it. When I first read the synopsis, I was a little worried that it was going to be `yet another vampire book. The calibre of the authoring makes this one a cut above the rest and I eagerly await the next instalment. I am recommending it to all my friends and they too are impatiently waiting for the next book to be written. The writing is superb. The author really excites the imagination, by transporting the reader to the world of the twins and the supernatural world they have been flung into. The book appeals both to young adults and adults, making it the perfect book to read and talk about together. I would recommend this book for any parent who wants to encourage their young adult to read.

Ninas book kept me engrossed over three fast-paced nights. From the first page onwards I was caught up in Violets and Jacks world. From the death of their parents to their discovery of hidden powers, and the threats to their lives because of their heritage, Ms Perez doesnt let her debut novel sag at any stage. She populates the story with believable but impossible characters. We have fairies, werewolves, vampires and witches, some allied with humanity, others not, all central to a conspiracy that will have a devastating impact not only on Violet and Jack, but perhaps on the human race, too. Ms Perez has a flair for dialogue and plot twists and is in no doubt where she intends to take her characters and ourselves, her readers. For what has been described as Twilight meets Harry Potter, The Twin Prophesies is the start of something special. Read it.

This is a spectacular story that may be written for the YA crowd, but it has an intriguing story that anyone would find interesting and wrapped up in. Its very well written, the characters are developed nicely, and the attention to detail is phenomenal. Its a great start to a great adventure, and I look forward to losing myself in their further adventures.
