Balance picks right up when Pendulum left off and was hard to put down; I found myself reading ahead in my hunger to find out more! The heroine, Semara, goes through such a wide range of emotions that you can't help but feel them with her due to the great writing ability of it's author, Ciara Knight. There is plenty of action, as I had come to expect from the series, and some great character development as the story continues. A truly engrossing series that I would recommend to everyone. "Life on a war-ravaged Earth is a dying experience. Finally, after years of tyranny, the rebellion rises. Once I rescue my fiancé Ryder Arteres, I, and the rebel general, will fight to free our people. In a war where alliances shift and friends betray one another, will the final battle prove the truth of the prophecy the queen has so feared—her death—or will I lose everyone I love?" |
