Blurb:
The countdown clock reads ten days until the end of the world. The
citizens are organized. Everyone's been notified and assigned a duty.
The problem is . . . no one knows for sure how it will end.
Energy-hungry Mages are the most likely culprit. They travel toward a single location from every corner of the continent. Fueled by the two suns, each Mage holds the power of an element: air, earth, fire, metal, water, or ether. They harness their powers to draw energy from the most readily available resource: humans.
Ashara has been assigned to the Ethereal task force, made up of human ether manipulators and directed by Loken, a young man with whom she has a complicated past. Loken and Ashara bond over a common goal: to stop the Mages from occupying their home and gaining more energy than they can contain. But soon, they begin to suspect that the future of the world may depend on Ashara's death.

In her virtually non-existent free time, she loves to read, watch movies, and eat food. She is particularly fond of the food-eating and makes a point to perform this task at least three times per day, usually more.
My Thoughts:
This was definitely an original book! I really felt like Ashara was someone relate-able and honest. She and the reader are taken along on this journey and are basically co-pilots flying this plot through. Definitely, keeps you reading and wanting to piece together the story. I enjoyed this unique take on sci fi and can honestly recommend this to any YA sci fi fan! Good story, good characters, and solid writing make this a must read!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
