Ryen and his friends had been taught by their ancient records that there would be a Savior to atone for the sins of mankind. But...this would all happen on a planet other than their own. They are sent to Earth to see if this is the place where the Savior lived and died.Savannah is a girl who is running from her past and is all alone in the world. When she unexpectedly meets Ryen, both of their lives change.I received a copy from the author for review and this in no way influenced my opinion. I thought the premise sounded very interesting. I believe that there are worlds without number that have been created and have often wondered if there is another planet somewhere out there with life on it. That's exactly what this story showed. Ryen and his friends were basically human, but just not from Earth. So...I found it interesting, but I was blown away by how much I actually enjoyed it. There was (clean) romance; suspense; fantasy elements; religious overtones; and a lot of action/adventure. I not typically a huge fantasy fan because some of it is very strange and out there, but this was just the right amount.I love Ryen!! He was charming enough to find the information he needed, but kind enough to treat people with respect. He didn't take advantage of people and their situations, he just did his job. I love how determined he was and how he was willing to sacrifice everything for what he truly wanted and believed in.Savannah is such a strong and brave girl!! I cannot imagine traveling the world alone and being able to protect myself the way she did. She was skeptical, with good reason, yet was willing to follow her heart, no matter the cost.Mateo, Chase, and Claire were all a lot of fun and were such good friends--the kind who stick by each other through thick and thin.I loved seeing the pieces of the puzzle fit together and the adventure really kept me flipping the pages. I was surprised to find myself on the last page. I will definitely be on the lookout for more by this author. I loved this fabulous book!!Content: kissing; man and woman share a bed, but nothing happens; a handful of mild language; violence and death, but not overly graphic; drug use and the negative effects.
Ok, I loved this book. No, I still love it, present tense. I'm telling my friends to read it. The plot and premise and romance and action were all just perfect, to me anyway. Loved it. Although the book does involve mentions of Jesus Christ as a possible Savior, the book is not... I don't know, super religious? Basically, I think any atheist who likes books that are good would like this book. It is not preachy and the focus is more on character development than on religion.Just buy the book and read it already!
If you are looking for a book that will keep your mind occupied with adventurous and thrilling tales, then this is the book for you! The Others is a breathtaking story filled with pop-fiction, religion, and romance. The storyline challenges your mind to figure out what happens next and never ceases to surprise you with the different twists and turns each character faces. You will instantly fall in love with each character's personality and would wish they could be your best friends. Kristin Bryant definitely has a way with words and can make the story come alive. Each page leaves you wanting more; I couldn't put this book down even if I tried. You will not be disappointed in this book!
This isn't my usual genre of book, but I was pulled in right from the first chapter. I really enjoyed the concept of other worlds, other beings, the struggle and the love story. I was captivated the whole time and had a hard time putting it down. I really hope there will be a sequel!
As an avid reader, I'm always looking for the next great book...well, The Others did not disappoint. I was carried away to another planet, filled with people who were looking for an answer. Could the records passed down through generations be true? Did the "Light" truly exist and if so, could Ryen and his team find the evidence they were searching for?The Others takes the reader on a journey filled with adventure, love, betrayal, suspicion, danger, laughter and mystery. The story draws the reader in and unfolds in the mind, as vividly as if it were happening before one's very eyes.It was difficult to pull myself away from the book, even to go to bed at night. The Others captivated my imagination, continuing into my nightly dreams and even making it's way into my daily ponderings.Yes, the characters in the story are on a spiritual journey, but is written in a way that is non-threatening, even to the least religious among us.My recommendation is to READ IT! You will be glad you did.I can't wait for the next book from this author. Oh, and in my opinion, Hollywood would be remiss if they didn't consider this book for the "big screen." I would say it ranks right up there with The Hunger Games.
