I
am glad to be back! And today I am super
excited to have another Ink Monster review for the newest installment in the
Shadow Ravens series, book three, Quanta Reset.
You can check out my reviews of the previous two books Cipher and Quanta
and get caught up because we pick up right where we left off and let me just
start off with saying WOW!
Rating: 5
Shadow Ravens
When
we left off Quanta and Tair had managed to unlock her new power and escape from
Dr. Nagi and rejoin the Shadow Ravens and Lady Eva and while things were better
than being prisoners they were far from happy go lucky. Quanta was struggling being around so many
people and focusing with the constant assault of time ghosts, the pasts and
possible futures and let's not forget they are in a war and in hiding. We pick up quickly after that.
Quanta
is struggling at the compound. Her only
bright spot is Tair and their decision to look at their genetic pairing as a
positive rather than a negative. They
continue to test the limits of her abilities while Tair works on a way to help
her with the constant pain being around people causes. Things are never that easy as they try to flush
out a traitor in their mists and track down Dr. Nagi and his continued
experiments to duplicate her power could end everything.
Quanta
Reset is one big action filled adventure that takes you on a whole roller
coaster of emotions. I was sucked in
from the start wanting so badly to see Quanta and Tair to have a little bit of
downtime, a much needed break to be them because they are so cute
together! That's not in the cards so
they are thrown from one situation to another and things look bad for my
pair. Still even with everything going
on at the compound there were bits of calm, or as calm as one can be in this
world, that really grounded and reestablished all the reasons I do love them. The pairing we learned about at the end of
Quanta could be the blame for the protective instinct but it's clear seeing
them together and how they know one another so easily it's real. His desire to put her above all else, she is
his priority and while he wants to protect her he doesn't try to suffocate her
but give her space and let her make her own choices.
Things
continue to get crazy and really start to mess with your emotions if you're as
invested in the characters as I am. I
mean Quanta has this amazing ability but the pain it causes her almost
debilitating her in everyday life is insane but still she wants to push to
help. There was a point, I don't want to
ruin it by explaining but you'll know when you get to it, where I was thinking
"Oh no NOT good" and that continued to grow and keep me on the edge
of my seat until the last page and then some. I couldn't put it down. That is one of my favorite aspects of these
books, they are so quick and full of things happening you fly through them
easily but they take you on a full journey each and every time.
One
other things I enjoyed about this one was we also got to see more about Cipher
and Knight from book one. They are on
the compound so seeing them interact as one was really cute. Our two couples both men worried about their
hard headed and determined Red. Seeing
them side by side….yum! We also get introduced
to a new Red with an interesting power whom I hope to see again.
Well
that's all I can say. I haven't disliked
a book yet. Another great thing is when
you finish a book you know when the next one will be out. In this case Quanta Rewind will be out on April
25th 2017! They even have a hand
pre-order link which is great because I know I can't wait! Quanta Reset is out today and if it's not
clear I HIGHLY recommend this series to everyone!
Until
next time…
