My Review

Brink of Dawn is an incredibly thrilling young adult fantasy complete with intense action and invaluable friendships. This is book two in the Chosen Series and it is just as captivating as the first book, Wind Catchers. A host of new characters make an appearance and readers get the chance to meet the other Chosen ones. Juliet's impressive abilities continue to emerge and she soon discovers she is the one who will lead the other Chosen in their fight to save the world. However, they'll have to survive their Host's training techniques if they hope to stand a chance against the Deltites.

Simply put, my thoughts on this book are "wow!" I loved the first book and was eager for Brink of Dawn to be released so I could find out what the authors had in store for Juliet and the others. I was not disappointed and raced through the pages taking in the exciting and gripping plot as it unfolded before me. The authors are amazingly gifted and share their talent with readers through their imaginative storyline and creative characters. I like how the setting changes from the Arizona desert to the Big Apple, giving readers a chance to explore new places right along with the characters. Speaking of characters, they are my favorite part of this series. They are developed in such a way that it's hard not to feel connected to them. I celebrated their accomplishments, felt their fear, and genuinely cared for their well-being.Brink of Dawn is definitely a great story for teens and young adults, but older adults (such as myself) will enjoy this series as well. Kudos to the authors for another book well done and I highly recommend picking up a copy.
